    "San Bernardino county does not train law enforcement to handle these high-stress situations appropriately. They have a very brutal approach of shoot first, ask questions later,” she said.

    Lady, that’s all of law enforcement.

      I genuinely wonder how many people would still be alive if the police had stuck with their Time/Distance/Cover training instead of the Killology Bulletproof Warrior garbage they use now.

        Yeah, don’t forget about Japan, the only exception. Not to say that they aren’t bad, they’re all bad, Japanese cops just aren’t going to kill you unless they absolutely have to.

          Only the US cops are this bad because they are not trained enough. Our police in germany has issues but those are barely comparable to these of the US because here they are trained well.
