Always amazed watching Alaska state troopers. Several times walked away from potentially lethal situation versus going in to get them as they would in every case in Texas. Yes I know they act different due to being on TV but the non escalating strategy works.
Sometimes.But there are times where force is not only needed but necessary.
Have you had chance to check out few episodes. Fairbanks can get rough. Really impressed how they deal with natives in small villages.
Had a drunk suicidal threatening male. Had him outnumbered and out gunned. Decided to wait him out till next day. He sobered up came out shook their hands and arrested.
Ex marine PTSD. Sharpshooter. They left him in his house.

In Texas they would of killed both these fkers.
Interesting to hear about these; thanks for posting.
There will always be people who say "sure, but they shouldn't have taken the risk of waiting them out because these could have ended up really badly". Yes, but the choice of always going in fast and heavy has risks, too.
my small self... like a book amongst the many on a shelf

I've seen southern justice and Rocky Mountain law.Ill give the Alaska show a watch.
Internal Affairs found no wrongdoings: yet again, another reason for the logical move to having independent commissions investigate allegations of abuse.
You'd like to think with all these stories surfacing, the seemingly endless stream of brutality would be coming to an end.
In answer to your question, Jeter needs a payout and those officers should face (off the top of my head) obstruction of justice and assault charges.

Well of course they IA found no wrong doings....isn't it odd I've heard those sayings before "stop resisting" "why you going for my gun". Once those words are said everything after that is justified. That other officer rammed and damaged even though Jeter's car was in park. My sister lives in Bloomsfield, NJ and it's scary to think that SOME of the officers there are comfortable acting this way against an innocent citizen....no video, Jeter's in jail for a year or two.

I don't see how waiting people out (at least for some amount of time) would ever create more risk than not waiting and using violence. Not unless it's a hostage situation.

Those cops that killed that dude with his hands up is absolutely insane. They are claiming he had a knife in his hands. But holy hell, the dude appeared to not be any threat to the THREE cops that were on the scene.
I really hope these cop killings aren't becoming a trend. All the more reason to take a good hard look at police-civilian relations in this country. Shit is getting out of hand.

It's part of the job. We have no idea if that is above normal because of the lack of reporting. But I'll repeat, it's part of the job. And we the people have given the police that authority. If I had to guess how many of the 700 were justified, I would say 500-600. That would be 100-200 too many non justified shootings. And that's 1 -200 trials that should be happening.
All we know is now everyone is watching now so every incident gets reported where it didn't in the past.
Think of all the criminals that don't get shot too.
People need to stop committing crimes.
Haha. I'm glad someone has it all figured out.
My brain's a good brain.
Do you know where that's from? I'll give you a hint (don't freakin' Google it)... stupid movie.
Idiocracy? I really have no idea....
Tropic Thunder.
Oh, I saw that movie when it first came out. Don't remember if it was good or not.
Me and my stupid friends got a kick out of it at the time. I'm not recommending it... I just wanted you to know that I wasn't some kind of guy that walks around telling people 'my brain is a good brain'.

So how do we keep people from committing crimes. Arrests and incarceration isn't working so have to spend energy on education, jobs, family and social justice.
