You are drawing conclusions based on a small, well publicized subset of the LEO world.
The vast majority of officers never draw a weapon in the line of duty. Of those that do - the majority do it for the right reasons.
But those don't get on TV.
I'm sure that a lot of cops do. It just bothers me that there are enough cases of cops doing things worthy of prison time, to make up two long Fucking Cops thread, and that there doesn't seem to be a year that goes by without some egregious offense being committed somewhere.
There should be a high standard for a group of people that we're meant to legally submit to, on the assumption that their job is to protect and serve us. At least, higher than it is now.
