Not really. You pin a guy with your knees into their back, neck, or head. Gee, wonder why they wouldn't want to do that???
You can see the cop even put him in a chokehold after he grabbed the tazer for a second but then let go. That's why he was easily able to get back up on his feet.
A few weeks ago there was absolutely no way that guy would have been able to get up. The cops would be smashing his face into the ground with their knees dug into his back like they're trained to do.
the police have been put in an impossible situation. they can save a life by using appropriate force, but then be fired or charged if that force looks bad on camera, or they can use appropriate force and if the person dies they get fired or charged with murder. There is no winning.
No kidding. Couldn't entice me into law enforcement as a job after watching all this. No pay is worth possibly being locked up for life for just trying to do your job.
That's why they are resigning in droves. Seattle's had over 30 resignations in the past few weeks.
Seattle is Dying
Guess as a cop you need to be 6'6 and 275 pounds of pure muscle.
And not give a damn. Those two could have subdued him but were not as rough as they could have been. I don’t blame them. They are in an impossible situation.
Couldn't pay me enough to work in law enforcement right now.
How about not following orders for any amount of money?
I ignore orders all the time, and don't get paid shit. Lol
Don't worry they'll listen to their masters and arrest peaceful right wing people, though.
Feel not a lick bad for them.
What do you get when you betray, the only people who ever supported you, and ABANDON THEM AT EVERY TURN?
I'll tell you what you get. You get what you fucking deserve!
Wrong. You do NOT pin someone on the neck. That is a technique that the military doesn't even allow when detaining people. There are better ways to control someone, but this dude was hopped up on something.
Isn't it too dangerous to kneel into their neck? Back seems like it is (much?) safer to pin. And don't you risk putting too much pressure into the skull if you kneel on the head? But I am by no means an expert.
You do whatever you have to to win the fight.
Very true. Though, if the fight ends up won, and there are multiple officers present, wouldn't you move your kneeling away from the neck, at least?
He wasn't making up moves. He was doing what he was trained to do. It's in the mnpls pd manual.
