As someone who is friends with a handful of cops, plenty of them are ok. The sort of people youd want to help in an emergency. They do have thugs and bullies, not suited to a fair bit of police work, but the police need the numbers, and so assign people like that to units who specialise in crowd control, riot control etc. so it frees up the more level-headed ones can be e.g. 999 responders, desk sergeants, interviewers etc.
