Loading ...Agree with all you said but sadly, cops don’t have the training on how to handle a psych patients and how would one discern the difference anyway. Cops make split second decision that can and do affect their ability to stay alive and the lives of others too. Sure there a some bad cops out there who are abusing their power but I must believe that a vast majority are just doing their jobs and want to go home to their family. If one’s life is threatened one will respond to survive. This guy was threatening just by his sheer size. Have to respect the badge and hope that the police brass will cull out the bad eggs. The alternative is chaos.
Don’t envy the job you had back in the day. Fast with the needle saved lives.
