But citizens also need to realize that when one person is holding a knife and shoving that knife towards the body of another person, non-lethal is not the way to go.it's way past that point. With the advent of body cam footage, I'm seeing a lot of situations that are being unnecessarily ramped up by poorly trained cops. It's a very dangerous job requiring split-second life or death decisions, anyone who says otherwise is naively ignorant.īut I would like to see more emphasis put on high-stress training, learning how to step back when able and calm the situation down a bit. It's easy for civilians to criticize interactions they're never had to deal with, types of people the average citizen doesn't encounter on a daily. And the 'macho' types were being hired in greater numbers. Then, the 'overpower with numbers and authority' attitude started to show up. When I started, we were taught to de-escalate the situation if at all possible unless someone was in eminent danger of course. If you have a question or problem, reach out to us via Mod Mail.
