A text book example of de-escalation . Best to submit unfortunately. Video helps to at least add some context. I am sure they will have a reason to justify it.
Thank goodness I don't live in America. I believe you actually had to send some cops to Britain to be trained in restraining techniques. That goon missed the flight, obviously.
Actually, the US trains these techniques as well to other nations such as Saudi Arabia. The fingerlock grip is by far the way to go here. He had an easy ability to step behind her to initiate.
It's the way the world works. Here's another way to look at it: don't start nothing, there won't be nothing. When a cop decides you're going to jail you're going. Arguing with the cop will not change it, resistance will at best get you a resisting charge and at worst could be a fatal mistake. The customer directly influences the serve they receive from the police. Don't resist and you'll be just fine, resist and all bets are off.
In America you can be shot dead for looking sideways at a cop, or shot in the back while running away, unarmed. Guess where I prefer to live.
Wtf are you talking about? We aren't an oppressed regime. You have basic human rights. If you resist arrest, yes, you need to be detained. BUT there are ways you are trained to do it to specifically avoid instances like this. I didn't realize you were such a fan of NK
Is that how you were trained to take down a semi-combative suspect significantly smaller than you? Because there are 5 levels, and many more techniques to avoid this. But I'll leave it to you, since you're the professional.
It was a legal takedown maneuver and no one was injured. Yes, if you get physical with a cop in the US he will get physical with you. When you are aware of this simple fact the onus is on you not to get physical with the police.
There is no duty to be less physical just because it could be done just as there is no duty to shoot someone in the leg instead of the chest. She reportedly had already assaulted the bouncer and the officer. Maybe she will think twice next time before escalating the situation, especially when she had already been told to leave but elected to remain and start crap.
Just because I understand how it works doesn't mean I'm advocating it. So shove the North Korea bull **** back in your pie hole. I'm guess this woman thought her rights and our governments laws would keep her from eating concrete. Looks like she was wrong.
And what was "the situation"???? That's my point. As much as I hate to say this (because I have heard it in more clear cut cases of brutality), that 10 second clip doesn't tell the whole story. In all probability, you are correct and it was too much force, but we don't know what happened and the story sure doesn't elaborate.
The situation couldn't be easier. And the clip could be 3 seconds, that doesn't matter. The story is not important here. She was semi-combative IN THAT MOMENT, and received an unethical takedown when he could have EASILY used the fingerlock to bring her to the ground. He had control.
I believe that's what he was trying to do but she didn't keep her footing, therefore making this look worse than it was.
He had control since the 3rd second. He didn't even try to initiate back control. He place his foot in front of hers first, initiating the toss. That breaches the ethical code of conduct. This is absurd.
You\'re talking classroom theory and I'm talking real world. If you don't believe me, go out and get chesty with a cop. When he grabs you, try to shake him off and continue being aggressive, like this girl. When he breaks your head you can explain to him that a simple arm bar would have sufficed.
Well clearly you have no law enforcement experience if that's your argument. There are 5 levels of escalation. What's the first one?
