They were taught to view interactions with certain types of people as life of death on first approach.

I think I read somewhere that there are 1800 police services/forces in the US. That's a crazy number and as you said, likely the reason why there are so many issues down there.
I think you've mischaracterized Grossman's books. I think you need to read them before you can pass judgement because they are far from a handbook teaching cops to kill. While he has faced criticism, his books are well researched and well written.
