I am wondering if certain police units have cliques. I am aware that in the military certain units rangers seals etc have a mentality of proving yourself once you’re there. My friend is an army ranger but when he got to battalion he was hazed and just not part of the group until he went on deployment. I am guessing there isnt much hazing in law enforcement as you are not living in barrack and around each other 24/7 but are there plain clothes units or swat teams that have a kind of your not one of us until you make certain arrests or deal with certain events like an active shooter. I am aware post police officers dont ever shoot anyone and some dont even draw their weapons. But im assuming some groups like gang units have a disproportionate amount of officers who have either been shot at or have shot someone/been in shootings Or major drug busts car chases etc.
Are there police units that have a clique or element of your not one of us.
