Again, I am not saying Clemans isn't wrong.

That said - I work for a private firm, not even remotely as crucial as the police dept. cops are trained to deal with all kinds of situations/personalities (my boss is not). The captain could've banned him for a month, instead of permanently. After both of them have cooled down, he could've sat him down and explained that shouting isn't going to help. He could've given him warnings etc. Instead, he seems to have gone on a power trip. Clemans is not some destructive guy, or some criminal. He is just a frustrated over enthusiastic young man. The real losers in this are the people of Seattle.

I hope some other police dept hires him and also he learns to control himself better.
