Being trained to do that doesnt mean its their day job, or that they enjoying doing it - the majority will come from front line posts like neighbourhood policing and such like. I don't deny there is always the exception and when the adrenaline is flowing, and people are scared for their safety, sometimes under extreme provocation some can also overstep the mark - not condoning it, but I can see how it happens and its easy for us, in the cold light of day, to judge actions in isolation.Maybe folk who become riot police aren't as averse to violence as most people.
