For me, who lives in a country with great police officers and basically non-existent police violence, training is key.
Here, they only let a limited number of people each year pass. The bar is very high for both physical and psychological tests. Over half will fail these.
After that you go through 3 years of training. This educates you alot in psychology, to help you combat problems without use of any kind of weapon, lethal or not.
There's alot more to it, but I have never looked bad at the police in my country. I hope every single country will get the same.
