In Canada:
-job security
-decent income
-serve the community
Anyone finding themselves continuously having problems with police are probably scumbags that lack self-awareness.

I get all the Incredible benefits, I'm talking about the mental state of of who they except
Bullies
Liars
Aggressive abusers who seem to enjoy giving g people a hard time.
I agree there are a lot of scumbags out there so why would anyone want to have to deal with them unless they get off on that shit.
The reasons could be multi-faceted and I wouldn't pass judgement without data. People that sign up to policing might also enjoy unpredictability and danger, whereas most average people prefer mundanity, familiarity, and low-risk endeavors. When everyone is running away from danger, the officer's duty is to run toward it.
For every rogue cop video (usually posted from the US, where policing isn't necessarily comparable to Canada) there are thousands of interactions between police and the public that are respectful.
For the record, police recruits in Toronto are largely university educated (over 92% have post-secondary education), even though the official line is that only a high school diploma is required.
The irony is that most people who complain about police are never willing to or are incapable of becoming police themselves. It's as though they recognize the inherent danger of the job and that the job is far more difficult than they let on. It's as if they know that they wouldn't survive the same level of scrutiny that they so freely direct at police who are currently serving. So they armchair quarterback instead of doing the dirty work because they would fail at it even worse than the police that they condemn. They'd be too scared to deal with murderers, scofflaws, karens, violent mouthy arrogant emboldened citizens, drunks, addicts, homeless, and the mentally ill.

I was actually agreeing with you when you said you don't have any issues with cops, same as I. The "you" in the second paragraph was meant as the general you and not you specifically.
I re-read my post and understand the confusion and made an edit. Sorry if my post wasn't clear about that.

Vast majority of cops are great. Yes, there are some who are dickhead bullies. Almost never the female cops BTW.
Canadian cops amongst the best anywhere in the world, and I've been to almost 3 dozen countries. Maybe up there w Brits and Singaporeans. Dutch and Swedes not so bad either.

Singaporean cops have the benefit of policing a well behaved citizenry.
