All police officers from Oregon that are involved in deadly force will be tested for steroids

Numerous persons suppose that “roid rage” or uncontrolled aggression is a common side consequence which appears in those who use steroids. Moreover, several individuals confirm that it is even impossible to prevent this undesirable symptom, if you administrate steroids. Nonetheless, it is not proven scientifically that it is a real unexpected reaction of anabolic steroids. But even if we suggest that it exists, it can appear just in small number of steroid users.
Since a lot of individuals confirm that “roid rage” is a side result of anabolic steroids, many ill-informed legislative suggestions were made. Certain such proposals have been made in Oregon. It has been proposed to introduce several new laws. According to these new laws, if any police officials have been involved in deadly force, or if police force resulted in certain injuries, they must be tested for steroids.
The same proposal was made by the politician Lew Frederick in Oregon House of Representatives. Those police officials that have used deadly force will be investigated, tested for some drugs and their mental health will be also evaluated.
In fact, it is not clear why police officers who are involved in deadly force will be tested for steroids. Can usage of steroids prove that application of deadly force was unjustified? Is it confirmed that steroids due to aggressiveness can make police officers unable to make fair decisions?
Investigation team is a good idea for police officers that apply deadly force. But usage of steroids should not be taken in consideration here. Positives or negatives for steroids can’t determine whether deadly force has been applied properly or not. It doesn’t matter a police officer has administrated steroids, aspirin or just drunk juice.
So, it is possible to make a conclusion that legislators turn to be captivated by hysteria related to “roid rage” of anabolic steroids. Undoubtedly, Of course, illegal usage of steroids by police officers should be a legitimate concern. But it is not said about uncontrolled aggressive manner as a chief reason in this case. The problem is that illegal intake of controlled substances by police officers makes them vulnerable to corruption and the black market of steroids. Such police officers may compromise.
