What 'best practices' developed over 500 years are you referring?

I have numerous friends who are police.

They had three months training, then were sent out to see the worst humanity has to offer.

One of my police friends has a coffee table book of interesting dead bodies from crime scenes.

I'm not sure what 500 years of best practice you're referring.

From crime scene handling, to forensics, to specialists like SWAT, all the way to non gun carrying police (uk/colonies) vs America’s gun carrying cops to access to medical and mental care and even labor unions, these are modern inventions.

Compare to things like Spanish brotherhoods or the military handling policing in Rome.
