The vast majority of these incidents in the end come down to errors either through incompetence, or perhaps more often and more worryingly, not incompetence or inability, but simple arrogance, ignoring procedure (which is there for a GOOD REASON) and going off all John McClane. Or even Judge Dredd might be more accurate.

It wouldn't be accepted in any other profession, and if anything, the standards should be even higher when it comes to armed police officers. Not lower.
