Weirdly there seems to be nothing between “stop” and blamblamblam in any of the police training manuals anymore.
There’s about 2 seconds between them.
Thank the lawyers, personal judgement and non-conformance to procedure is a punishable offense. All that matters is ensuring deadly force can be justified.
Exactly. A Cop say stop as they draw their weapon. Then it's POW POW POW. And I know that because I have seen it with my own eyes. It's not like the moveis were cops go around pointing guns at perps and telling them to put their hands up. These days it seems any perceived threat = lead sandwich.
Really?
I'm wondering what your expertise on this subject that you purport to have, really is.
Through personal experience and sharing notes with friends are relatives who've been through: CBP, Social Security, Post Office, State Police (4 states), Local Police (5 jurisdictions), and other varied Federal LEO agencies (at least three), we've all been briefed on the UFC (Use of Force Continuum)
1. Physical Presence
2. Verbal Command
3. Intermediate Force
4. Intermediate Force Weapons
5. Lethal Force
So what police training manuals have you been reading... anymore?
