Same here, paramedics in our region seem to err more on the side of caution and request police more often than not, they won't even go to welfare checks unless Police are already on scene and there is a patient, otherwise they wont even be dispatched.
I think most of us know the answer to this. :2c:
Anyone remember this shooting? Where they shot a guy in the subway for "walking between train cars"? Any of you actually see any of this in the news; if so was it for more than a day? Did those officers lose their jobs for attempted murder...
Officer who shot Rayshard Brooks charged with felony murder after suspect resisted arrest during a DUI stop, fought with both officers, stole a tazer, and firing said tazer at the officer...
8 calls in 3 years is not bad, for that population..that's a lot. Imagine if uniformed officers turned up for those tactical calls, you'd probably have 8 dead people due to lack of training. You're obviously in favor of defunding, that much is clear. I just hope if specialist units are defunded...
I am aware of that, I meant that there would be no riot squads anywhere. Why do the job when you get fired for doing it? First riot, then your other specialist teams who will now have to step up and perform those duties..
Now what happens when those units are already resigning from their...
That sets a difficult precedent. You'll have more than that PS's riot squad quitting their duties, it'll be country wide. The unit responsible for maintaining public order can't maintain public order, or they'll get fired. ::)
The riot police stopping a 70 year old man from interfering with their duties is the same as them stopping a 20 something year old man doing the same thing. The difference is the 70 year old man hit his head on the ground, so that's newsworthy. Imagine walking towards a riot squad, whose main...
Another example of why you should be wary of 10 second video clips without context...notice the knife coming loose after the second kick..

The "expert" at the end had me chuckling.
Anyone who's completed the PID course able to give me a heads up on what to expect? I have the Combat Eng DP1 to go off of for confirmation of combat knowledge amount.. as far as I've seen they do the ship's team diver course and then continue on after that for more training? PT wise, same as...
From that video.. "Why couldn't they have used a tazer on her?"
This I actually applaud the officer for not going for, because the chance of a tazer landing on a moving target, both prongs landing, and having it penetrate clothing is slim to none. I've seen some pretty accurate tazer shots on...
A distinguishable uniform, matching arm bands, burning books, beating you and threatening you if you have a differing opinion.. includes both fascists and, ironically, the antifa.
