Reach for the right tool.
Apply the right rule.
Do I use verbal commands?
Do I use handcuffs?
Do I use physical restraints?
Do I use pepper spray?
Do I use a taser?
Do I use a baton?
Do I use a gun?
Were you teaching all of that in the context of here's what you're legally allowed to do?
Like that was your part of the training?
That was something I was supposed to teach, but they cut it from the curriculum, right?
There was a class that the lawyers would teach that focused on the law behind use of force, right?
And it was part of the broader scope of classes we would teach about the officer's constitutional authority and the limitations of their authority.
Wow.
When did you realize that that was cut?
when I saw the curriculum.
Ryan realized when he was comparing the new curriculum to the old one that a lot of stuff, like a comprehensive firearms exam, had been cut, while other stuff had been so compressed he found it hard to believe it would be understandable, let alone absorbable.
Like, for example, a class about the Constitution that used to be two hours
and a class on the limits to use of authority that also used to be two hours.
