    All cops know how to do is escalate. Escalate, escalate, escalate, escalate. That’s literally ALL they do. How anybody looks at law enforcement in any capacity as a good thing is crazy to me.

      False, cops attempt de-escalation regularly, and generally react as rationally as a human can.

      You are seeing a poorly trained individual here, not a cop but a “special agent” with possible psychopathic traits.

        I studied police in college through my degree, I’ve done ride alongs, I’ve visited prisons and morgues with these people. Cops are some of the most incompetent POSes on the planet. They have been murdering people with impunity for 50+ years. You will not convince me otherwise. You are delusional. ACAB.

          Im not arguing their incompetence. Im saying they do generally have a record of attempting to de-escalate.
