It’s called command presence

Another submissive self identifies.

This breakdown pretty much nails it. They are taught to command situations because every day they are placed in chaotic events that require someone to take control, and if they don’t then the situation quickly devolves and puts everyone in more danger. They are also on high alert a lot of the time, and that switch isn’t easy to just turn on and off. Lmao at the people in this thread incessantly bashing police officers, when most of you would literally piss your pants at least once if you worked as a police officer for a month. But I also think a lot of the nervousness people feel is all internal and projected outwards because police presence makes them uncomfortable. If you carry yourself with any amount of confidence and respect you probably wouldn’t have ann issue when encountering police, especially off duty police officers.

Basic survival. Young cops learn from the old cops. Old cops survived so young cops to copy their mannerisms, language, techniques etc.

Because most have similar personality traits. That go through similar training. That have similar life experiences. Etc. Plus when you spend thousands of hours in uniform responding to calls where you are 'in charge' you typically develop a command presence. Another major factor is you are always 'switched on' in public. Paying attention to everyone and everything. You can't really switch off unless you dull your senses with alcohol/prescription drugs and/or are in a private environment. Obviously some fall out of that range which is why you have fat people and **** bags that wear the same uniform...

STFU. Watch all 100+ videos on Police Activity youtube channel and tell me if you still have the same opinion afterwards. Cops deal with the most evil heinous **** day in day out.

I work security with a bunch of former/retired cops and I never noticed anything like this.

If you're low òn confidence, you can emulate a Cop's body language. When I walk down the street, people always assume that I am into law enforcement because I act like I owned the place.

A good deal of cops are former military, and played sports in high school. So I don't know where you're coming up with this false notion of insecurities.

Ronnie Coleman was a cop, what does he have to be insecure about?

Okay? Is good posture a bad thing?

I’ve been told I hold eye contact a lot, but I’ve always done that since I was a teenager. The eyes don’t lie, and you can get a good read on peoples intentions from their eyes.

You are trying to find a loophole for the stupidity from your last post to fit through.

You know exactly what I mean and you are being retarded.

This.

It's why most are ass holes (not just on the job, but in life, too).

police and military personnel are trash. they think that theyre doing honorable work and they act so conceited with their chest puffed out, but in reality theyre pawns in a game of chess that has spanned thousands of years. when this plan finally reaches its end stages, the police and military will be the ones to carry out the commands to enslave humanity for those couple of wealthy clowns who own everything. this has all been written down and is available for anyone to read, but instead people feel more comfortable to just call people like me a tin foil hat

Barely a high school education, give them a weapon and authority to enforce and bend the “law”

Yes, what could possibly go wrong.

I'm a dutch cop,do you mean on or off duty?

Gonna agree with some poster above. Situational awareness is important and so is body language.

Sometimes it feels like everyone hates you or judges you even when you are doing good. They"the general public" just dont understand.

A person stabbed my collegeu, and we were with 3 on him. And people were yelling to get off him.


Things like that often happens so sometimes you distance your self from people.

There's is certainly a type of person that would be drawn in to a police job, I suspect for some it's compassionate people wanting to make society a better and safer place but there is also the ones that just want the power of the position "Little Hitlers" I call these ones!

That would make me furious.

And people wonder why police get aggressive with bystanders who won’t give them distance. The perp is dangerous, and the bystanders are dangerous now too. I tell people that we can’t read minds, so you have to treat anyone that is being aggressive (including bystanders)as potentially dangerous.

I personally like it. I see them talking at the gym and I feel like I’m missing out

Then what the **** are you bitching about?

Well guess what? Standards are being lowered, even physical standards because you zoomers are so pathetic, thst 75% of you were failing the run and sit ups portion.

I have known a few cops who mellowed out considerably after retirement. It is a job that gets to them. I don't know, how would any of you smart arses be, if you would roll from home violence to overdose scene all night long. It is just as hard and ungrateful job as paramedic or fireman.

Don't know don't care. Cops have become militarized and a pawn of the deep state. So funk em. Fukk FBI too.

no its more like giving out tickets for j-walking and rolling stops and not wearing a helmet while riding a bicycle.

Thats not to say those things shouldn't be enforced, its just that when the general public actually wants your assistance;

stolen bikes

Cat Converters theft

and other miscellaneous property thefts

or hell, even something as simple as helping someone whose car has broken down on the side of the road. Instead, two or three of you will drive right past them, but the moment they leave their car to walk 5 miles to the nearest gas station you ticket the car for being "abandoned"....and yeah, that story is very specific because it just happened to a co-worker this past week.

....you're never around or you drag your feet to the scene and just say there's nothing you can do when you arrive 3 hours later. You then pull out your notepad and jot down a couple of sentences in front of us to give us the false illusion that you care, when we all know your just gonna throw the scribbles away the moment you get off of your shift for the day.

and is it a lot of work to put effort into finding stolen property? Yes, but thats the job you signed up for. So maybe instead of hiding in the brush for hours at a time on the freeway pulling people over for going 5 over the limit, you can actually tackle issues people care about.....and yes, I know its out of your control and you have very little say in what your tasks are in a given day, I'm just ranting as an average citizen and expressing what I see from my vantage point.

Get something stolen? OK well be there in 3 hours to write a report. You aren't getting that chit back. We arent even going to try.

Oh you self defended yourself from a home invasion? Well be there in two minutes to come arrest your ass. Why do you have guns anyway. Don't worry well take those.

Oh what's that a cold is going around? Better deny your CONSTITUTIONAL FREEDOMS because we have our orders.

FUKK COPS.

Some people ITT are conflating being an ass hole with being a bad person.

I think most cops are ass holes, but I don't think they're bad people.

My favorite instance is whenever cops get into a high speed chase, how afterwards it's mandatory to beat the crap out of the guy as they pull him out of the car, regardless if he's resisting or not.

That there adrenaline rush.

Sorry it took 3 hrs to show up to a theft joh, we were in a backlog because Tookie got shot in the head, then we had to deal.with a hostile crowd, and the whole district had to be on scene for it.

And does your stolen property have GPS on it??? How do you expect us to find it? Sorry but that's a 3C job, it's not really a priority, because there's other things going on.

As for a broken down car on the side of the road, probably can't help you with that either, because Ray Ray is slapping Shaniqua upside her head, loud screaming in the background.
