It doesn't appear that there's much effort to deescalate.

You know, we come into chaotic situations and the training for several years has been to be proportional, to be professional, try and slow things down.

You come into a situation where

You know, there's some minor offense that may be offensive to you.

As a professional, you're not supposed to take things personally, even if someone's yelling something at you.

But the problem is, especially with some disorderly conduct, if you step in as a cop and you start up here and they don't comply, there's nowhere else to go but up.

It just doesn't make sense.

And it makes your own job that much more frustrating and difficult.

It's in no one's best interest.

It's just like everything's just like... I saw one video with a woman...

who was saying she was disabled, where one officer goes through the open window.

While he's through the open window, another officer is trying to open the same door.

Someone else on the other side is breaking a closed window and they're pulling her out while she's still in her seatbelt saying that I'm disabled.

And there's at least two knives.

that are out because they want to cut the seatbelt.

It looks like complete chaos.

And I don't know how anyone can charge, can see that and think that is safe for anybody involved.

Right.

Sure.

At least a number of the videos that we've seen that have been circulated online show a lot of methods that are questionable and tactics that just do not appear safe.
