Chaos is indeed fun. (Hm, that came out oddly!) I pretty much live in it all the time; at the same time, I not only see patterns of order within it -- amounting to almost-have-it levels of equilibrium over and over throughout our collective day -- but, like you, need order in order to live well.

As for copt -- considering that a fair estimate of the sociopaths among humanity is one in 25 people, they have to go somewhere, no? And if they have a strong sense of needing external accolade, they'd go to be cops. Or, if they just wanted to be bullies with permission, they'd go to be cops.
