A lot of men who go into police, security guard/bouncer, correction officer, etc work are men with anger issues, who used to be bullied when young & are looking to exploit the little bit of ‘power’ that they get from these types of jobs & take out all their frustrations & aggressions on the people they happen to come in contact with

In my experience, it's been the ones who were the bullies who ended up becoming cops/etc as adults. The perpetual D-student meatheads who just loved shoving people around when they were kids/teens who grow up and want to be able to punch down legally.

But I'm sure examples could be found in either direction.
