Well nowadays, uh, you know
voice-verified
De-escalation, you touched on that.
voice-verified
Such an important concept right now in law enforcement.
voice-verified
Um, I think it's it's vastly misunderstood.
voice-verified
Uh, I think that cops are by nature masters at de-escalation because we're doing that all the time.
voice-verified
We're talking people down who potentially would fight.
voice-verified
Um, we are taking people into custody using uh
voice-verified
you know, as little force as as we need to to take them into custody.
voice-verified
Um, and I think that um
voice-verified
Sorry, Paul, I lost my train of thought there.
voice-verified
Oh.
voice-verified
But with de escalation, it's a double edged sword because
voice-verified
Retreating, giving ground.
voice-verified
Is not always the best way to de-escalate a situation.
voice-verified
You could be emboldening this criminal to where now he's gonna pull out a weapon, where had you taken him down sooner or had you used some lower level of force earlier in the confrontation?
voice-verified
As you alluded to, you might have been able to solve it at a lower level of force, but now you're on your back, uh, he's got a weapon, and now you're reaching for your firearm to try to shoot this guy off, which is uh obviously deadly force that maybe could have been avoided if you had responded differently and sooner.
voice-verified
And secondarily.
voice-verified
Do you even have the ability to draw your pistol from the ground?
voice-verified
Have you ever trained in that?
