An honest question. But are cops not trained in deescalating situations?
oh what the fuck
Quote from: Kal on January 24, 2016, 02:53:12 PMThey're taught to shoot when they feel that their life is in "danger," not so much deescalate. Using that excuse is what makes cops get away with killing so many innocent people in situations where it wouldn't of turned fatal otherwise. It's the good 'ol fashioned shoot first and ask questions later, and it's obviously a nationwide issue that people keep ignoring for some reason. It doesn't matter what side you're on politically, it should be pretty evident that this needs to be fixed.wow bro nice rhetoric
