Oh I believe you that this is done everywhere in the US, and it shows.what other civilized country has so many cases of police shooting and killing people for tiny offenses?
It's again an extreme lack of training. You can just let them go and resolve the situation later, or do a list of other things than deciding to stand in front of the car and then claim your life was in danger because you were standing in front of the car...
This shit hardly ever happens in other countries, only in the US is this a multiple per day occurrence. Doesn't that make you think that US police officers should receive better training?
Mind you, the 6 months is in a good state, there are many way worse. And then there is the problem that many police officers get trained with pseudo science and outright bullshit. So if these police officers magically get 2.5 years of education, good on them. Of they stand in front of cars to block them, then I can already tell you want kind of education they get.
Believe it or not. But the US is not the entire world. I'm not talking just the US when I say everywhere.
As in police standing in front of cars? Happens in tons of countries.
As in frequency police shootings? We've already mentioned and talked about the lack of training. Like so many times. Why are you continuing to argue and debate about stuff we already agree upon?
