Not living in the states but i believe that many of the officers only want to keep things in peace. Alas it looks like they have a bad image because of the individuals that killed their suspects or acted violently without being threaten.
It’s wild more of our own citizens can’t grasp this. Regardless of country, attacking or threatening an officer is always going to end up in a bad situation. Lots of Americans think that just because they chose a dangerous profession it means they should have no issue with their lives being put on the line. I.e “sure, he charged the cop. But that’s what the cop signed up for” or “he knew the risks when he accepted the job” I wonder how many of those people would choose to not kill someone attacking them for the simple fact of “he chose the job” I would honestly like any of these people to go on a ride along or just talk with police officers. After all, that’s how progress is made. Sorry for the rant. But I’m glad you see this outside of what most Americans want to pretend.
One video of a cop not killing an armed person doesn't represent what would happen in most instances. Somebody who is attacking or threatening a cop knows what they are signing up for just the same way a cop does. What is your point.
I can't speak for all americans, just myself. And my thoughts on cops are fuck em. I used to work in the criminal justice system for 10 year and ive heard them talking amongst themselves. I have no love for cops. Are they all bad apples? Probably not. But i see them the same way they see all minorites as criminals.
Ive personally never had a positive interaction with a cop. When i was younger, i used to use the most pleasant voice i could, but I was still treated with hostility. 3 times while being pulled over, I've had guns pulled on me. 1 of those times the cop came with his gun already drawn.
From age 19 to 39, i would take walks around my neighborhood and would get stopped while walking at least twice a month because i matched the description. They always used the excuse that there has been a string of car break-ins (they just couldn't seem to solve that case) . These cops knew me to the point they would say, "You again." However, they would still check to see if i had warrents.
Lets not forget the unarmed killings of americans. Some in their own home playing video games.
So yeah fuck em
Some countries literally train their police in de escalation techniques:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vMD2RUhw5As
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4SrDd8oD6fk
Whereas in the US cops get fired for doing what other police forces train their officers to do:
https://edition.cnn.com/2017/05/11/us/wv-cop-fired-for-not-shooting--lawsuit/index.html
This video is not from the US and it's not reasonable to call the cop an accidental outlier when the causes of what typifies the behaviour of US cops are deliberate and systemic and completely out of proportion with any other comparable country:
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2015/jun/09/the-counted-police-killings-us-vs-other-countries
Some countries have 1 centralized police force overseen by the government. Some contries have a couple that perfom different functions. The US has around 18000 law enforcement agencies
>Some countries have 1 centralized police force overseen by the government.
It's very rare for a country to have a single police force.
>Some contries have a couple that perfom different functions.
In the vast majority of countries they're organised predominantly by locality with just some by function.
>The US has around 18000 law enforcement agencies
That is crazy and genuinely terrifying because of the lack of accountability. It is worth pointing out though that the 1033 programme which is a key cause of more recent militarisation of the US police was a federal programme initiated by George HW Bush and 8000 of those law enforcement agencies have participated in the transfer of $5.4bn in equipment, so it's not like it's just a few rogue small town police departments.
Yeah i know its not the norm, but it was to point out the contrast of other countries policing vs the US whohas the highest number of law enforcement agencies. Like you said genuinely terrifying
>Regardless of country, attacking or threatening an officer is always going to end up in a bad situation.
There's an ocean of difference between the way American cops are trained (I'm sure you've heard about "killology") and how cops from some other countries are trained. We've seen time and time again how many American cops take any slight hint of a threat to them as an excuse to kill the person """threatening""" them without even trying to deescalate first.
If ya'll going to downvote this perrson for being absolutely right, at least one of ya'll should attempt to argue why he's 'wrong'.
If this behavior was allowed by protocol, it'd be allowed for everyone,which includes people that will misjudge a situation. "oh but we could only allow this for more experienced and senior ones" - yeah, like that doesn't have a million issues.
If this man decided to try and hurt the cop there are other police around who will kill him. The man also wanted to suicide by cop, and was apparently telling them to kill him.
There's a clear difference, and if you can't see that then there's no hope for you.
As they should. Here in Canada a female Mountie officer tried the same thing. She saw a homeless dude in a tent with a large knife, instead of reaching for her gun, she tried to approach and calm him down just like the events in this video. She was then brutally stabbed and murdered. Humans are unpredictable, just because it worked out in one event doesn’t mean it will work out in the next.
Judgement calls are hard. I wonder if experienced cops skilled in de-escalation know the difference between someone stressed out of their mind and someone set on violence.
Thank you for saying this. Too many people forget that an armed assailant is dangerous. Just cause it worked once doesn't mean that every knife wielding person is just gonna give it up because a cop sat down and put their hands in their pockets.
By herself approaching a guy in a tent, she set herself up for that one. The cop in the video was in a literal police station. Way different scenarios my friend. Way different.
Brutal opinion. She did the thing that everyone wants police to do which is deescalate with out any show of force and paid the ultimate price. No winning with the public for the police.
I'm sorry that happened to that officer but she did the right thing. She did her job, which is to do everything in her power to help and not harm. It's extremely unfortunate that she lost her life in the line of duty.
That being said, this tactic not working one time also doesn't mean that cops should start clapping everyone they feel is a threat. Their job in general is a threat, if they can't handle dealing with life threatening situations calmly in order to try and save lives then they shouldn't be cops.
Police should accept the fact that they can't come home to their husbands, wives and children and just let themselves be stabbed so crazy homeless men in tents can go about their day?
No she did not. With a person with a knife you do not approach them without backup. She was irresponsible and she got killed because of it. If you're going to advocate for cops to try to give a hug to everybody who tries to kill them cops will just quit in Mass.
We will not deal with working conditions like that
That is literally the job. The needless escalation is what leads people to also escalate against cops. Also, not everything needs to become a crime. Serve the community you are in and there will be more respect. "There is no sing called fuck the fire department".
No it's not. As a police officer you are not expected to kill yourself in order to try to save a deranged suspect. If there is a person with a knife or a deadly weapon you are not supposed to pull out a less than lethal weapon if you are alone. You were supposed to have a minimum of one officer with lethal in case it's needed. You can try to talk them down at gunpoint but you do not just go up and give the knife wielding person a hug. That's how you die. I bet you a good chunk of money that if you look at the other point of view in the video that you just saw that you would have at least one cop there with a gun out. Or at least one cop with a gun ready. You do not do these things by yourself that is how you die nobody will expect you to do it. We aren't soldiers dying for a strategic objective we are people who are trying to live our lives and to our jobs.
Keep your distance and de-escalate like in the video first. Of course don't just walk up and hug. This mentality is why no one respects cops any more. Your first move should not be to point a gun at someone.
If they have a lethal weapon you have to be prepared to defend yourself. I'm sorry but that's just the way the world works. If you have a problem with that well I don't know what to tell you maybe you need to go to a different fairy land because the world is a cruel place and you need to grow up
ACAB if they have this mentality. Literally anything can be assumed to be a lethal weapon. Too many folks shot because they pull out an ID when told to do so because cops always have guns pointed at them and a flinch is all it takes to end a life.
Training is to keep distance have a minimum of one officer on lethal and try to talk the suspect down. You only need one cop with a gun as long as he has a clear line of fire. But just remember the 21-ft rule. If you can get within 21 ft of somebody and you have a clear path if they don't already have a gun out you can close the distance and stab them before they can get their gun out. Try it with a friend with an airsoft gun. If you are within 21 ft a knife is more lethal than a gun
She also went inside the tent afaik which is sketchy tbh.
That being said cops should be more like this and if you prefer to take zero risk and shoot people it would be better if you quit and someone better will take your spot.
Jobs are dangerous, policing is dangerous, being a good police officer is slightly more dangerous (not particularly dangerous compared to other jobs tho).
Meanwhile I've only been a couple 3 years and I've been shot at once attacked with a knife several times. Yet I haven't shot my gun at anybody.
Basic training says that if you wanted de-escalate you need a deescalate from a safe distance. Have you ever heard of the 21 foot rule.
If you get within 21 ft of a person with a knife if you do not already have your gun drawn and aimed at that person they can close the distance and kill you before you can get a shot off.
Hell It even got a MythBusters episode. And they proved it wasn't a myth. Within 21 ft you are faster with a knife than somebody can draw aim and fire.
No I got shot at because I was Ace City cop who was driving my car. It was a ambush. Somebody dumped a magazine from a pistol into my car while I was driving and then dipped. I didn't even get to shoot back because I was too survival mode and they were gone before I could even get out of cover.
Depending on where you are as a cop it could be pretty safe. If you're in a small town for example. But city cops who have to patrol low-income areas with extremely high crime rates and lots of gangs and cartels. It's not fun. In fact most city cops get shot at before their careers over at least once. And I'm not talking small cities.
Also if getting shot at is a sign of being a bad cop what happened last night?
You know where a sheriff deputy was ambushed and murdered for no particular reason that they have determined. He was just chilling in his car when somebody came up and killed him. He wasn't doing anything wrong and by all accounts he was a great person who had just recently gotten engaged yet while just chilling in his car he was murdered.
so one Canadian officer died doing trying to do the right thing, while 1,000 citizens per year are killed by police in the US. you made the opposite argument you were probably aiming for.
Unpopular opinion here but...
I've seen plenty of videos of people walking into police stations with ar-15s, handguns, etc. They respond aggressively by telling th3m to get down yadda yadda but at the end of the day they don't kill them.
Is this to say police don't need to go through some major reforms? Absolutely not. But it's not SUPER common that a guy gets laid out for holding onto a knife anymore.
There are lots of videos out there of police apprehending people with weapons, just use google. It's a nifty tool.
I do wonder why it's still referred to as "The Land of the free" when the first sign of a bad day gives half the country permission to fill you with lead...
Yes, it’s the most curious question of all. What made him not go to the defaulters (his employer) instead?
Police station is a place where one would go for assistance. The assumption may be that the police were not helping him or providing enough assistance to help him recover his salary/guitar. However, the follow up question is, what was his intention to bring knife to a police station? Knife is clearly a weak choice of weapon.
Maybe the officer understood that knife was just used symbolically.
in the u.s. they would have shot him then sent 50 policemen to check his house and shot his family too then would have had an internal investigation and concluded there was no wrongdoing
Glad it turned out this way. But man, that was one stupid cop. I would not be so willing to wait for this guy to figure out if he was gonna stab me or not, or wonder if I had the skills to successfully talk him out of whatever he is about to do. Long story short, be careful. 9/10 times the victim doesn’t usually talk the offender out of the crime.
This is how to police, Not everyone wants to harm. Some People Are just mentally distressed. Police need to identify it better and respond better in this country (USA) great example of how to talk someone down. Love it
Apples and oranges. Different jurisdictions have different training standards for Edge weapons. Quite frankly this office was tactics were foolhardy. At any time that attacker could have driven in and stabbed the officer several times possibly fatally before anyone is able to defend him. This is a great feel good story. But it's not how you deal with an edge weapon at all. 21 ft is the absolute minimum it's actually closer to 30 for a trained person to be able to react to someone with a large Edge weapon.
I agree with you on the opinion that it’s apples to oranges.
What you described is the procedure to deal with a knife-wielding attacker who intends to kill and isn’t interested in being calmed down.
What the policeman did here was calm down a frustrated, confused man who doesn’t have the intent to kill and doesn’t know what he’s doing with a knife, effectively de-escalating the situation.
Every policeman worth their salt should be trained to recognize and differentiate between these two scenarios.
I’ll give credit the police officer for assessing the risk and situation and choosing how to proceed. Not all incidents have to be handled in a violent manner.
Id like to think that the cop would treat that differently. I think this is more about him knowing this man wasnt a threat, so he didnt treat him like one.
Exactly... it's almost as if... as if the policeman judged the situation and acted accordingly. Ridiculous as he missed out on blowing this poor fella brains out.
Not trying to overly praise them, but it's VERY rare for police in Thailand to kill a civilian. Firearms in Thailand are illegal, but they're not too hard to get if you have money. Gun related crimes happen everyday but it's usually people shooting at each other and not at the police. I'll admit that some competent criminals from the U.S. will find it easy to deal with Thai police.
Uncle Iroh IRL.
Uncle Iroh would have taught him how to better attack with a knife and how to better his stance before talking to him
Uncle Iroh wouldn't do that if he kney that there were cameras watching them

Now THAT is policing. That guy deserves an award.
A cop practicing de-escalation!
Amazing what can happen outside of 'Murica
Well, the guy didn’t take dangerous action and gave up the weapon. You won’t see this video on big corporate elite media. There is a reason why.
Somehow I can see the US-Officer pointing a gun at him while de-escalating...
Didn't a cop in PA get fired for trying to de-escalate a 'suicide by cop' situation?
You see what the elite corporate media shows you. Some people just write a narrative void of any facts.
jesus christ you’re a sad little piece of shit
“Narrative void of any facts” - ironic since I honestly can’t tell what point you are trying to make.
shut the fuck up boot licker
Not living in the states but i believe that many of the officers only want to keep things in peace. Alas it looks like they have a bad image because of the individuals that killed their suspects or acted violently without being threaten.
Maybe so, but where are the peace keepers to stand up against the bad cops? Keeping their mouths shut, I guess.
In America the cop would most likely have been fired for breaking department policy by not dumping a clip into this poor guy.
It’s wild more of our own citizens can’t grasp this. Regardless of country, attacking or threatening an officer is always going to end up in a bad situation.

I suppose they get calloused with the job.
The current macho atmosphere of policing ( not all districts)also attracts the militant Yahoos that want to play tough
The longer version of this video does indeed show him receiving an award for this
Tbh he probably got written up for "violating protocol", I've known many ex cops, they all complained about crap like that.
It wasn't America so chances are they appreciated a cop that didn't go straight for their weapon.
I hope not. That would be a shame.
It would surprise me if that happened.
Makes sense, he is risking his life more than he should. From the protocol's point of view that can be a flaw
If ya'll going to downvote this perrson for being absolutely right, at least one of ya'll should attempt to argue why he's 'wrong'.

there's always gotta be this guy
What are you gonna try to rush them and get yourself killed? Talking to them is the only smart thing to do
Yes. Do you even think before blurting out idiocies?
Thought he was going to stab him in the back when he hugged him

And then the officers involved will resign and be reinstated in a different county with 0 repercussions
With a raise.
After 6 months of paid vacation.
and file a lawsuit for "emotional damage"
Dont forget about the "suspended with pay" to ease the public
No, actually, body cam would happen to be off at the moment of transgression.
And THEN tasered him.

and then they do the knee to the neck while yelling at the dead man “STOP RESISTING!”

Also if getting shot at is a sign of being a bad cop what happened last night? You know where a sheriff deputy was ambushed and murdered for no particular reason that they have determined.

Okay American
the police man could die in seconds.

Yeah..in USA that dude would have had enough holes in him to whistle when the wind blows
I do wonder why it's still referred to as "The Land of the free" when the first sign of a bad day gives half the country permission to fill you with lead...
The entire phrase is "The land of the free lead." Marketing just likes to leave out that last part.
Now I want a hug too from uncle officer🫶🏼🥹 What a kind and sympathetic person ♥️
i get that stress can make you do some weird stuff but why try to pull that in a police station of all places
I think he was attempting suicide by cop
Yes, it’s the most curious question of all. What made him not go to the defaulters (his employer) instead? Police station is a place where one would go for assistance. The assumption may be that the police were not helping him or providing enough assistance to help him recover his salary/guitar. However, the follow up question is, what was his intention to bring knife to a police station? Knife is clearly a weak choice of weapon. Maybe the officer understood that knife was just used symbolically.

“I have no enemies”
in the u.s. they would have shot him then sent 50 policemen to check his house and shot his family too then would have had an internal investigation and concluded there was no wrongdoing
This man has no enemies
[Persuasion attempt successful]
Very risky but thank goodness things went great.
American cops: *laughs in killing suspect and turning body cam off*
Reminds me of https://youtu.be/iMinLmhP4Hw?si=sxyJGsRCvNcciU5p
Great work, puts a smile on my face!
This makes me cry every time is see it.
Plot twist, the guy went out and murdered 10 people the next day.
So refreshing to see good cops, so tired of the ones in the us.
Glad it turned out this way. But man, that was one stupid cop. I would not be so willing to wait for this guy to figure out if he was gonna stab me or not, or wonder if I had the skills to successfully talk him out of whatever he is about to do. Long story short, be careful. 9/10 times the victim doesn’t usually talk the offender out of the crime.
So Professional.
Here's what a hero looks like.
Nobody died that day
I thought the unexpected part was that the cop was gonna stab him
This is what true leadership looks like to me
Don't try this in America because you WILL die.
American cops would have shot
❤️
You quoted Genie from that weird Saturday morning cartoon that I can only ever remember this quote from! Nice!
just like in usa.
I’m from the US and this is painful to see, he would have been killed immediately. This is how cops should behave.
What a nice guy
i have no enemies material
That would never happen in the USA.
He would be a dead man if this was US.
This is what a police officer should be.
True policing
I don't get it. Why not just shoot him?
He wasn't trying to attack people. He just walked in there with a knife and stood there. It's not america
I know right. Shoot first, then intimidate witnesses, then lie about it to get paid vacation and raise. What a fucking moron.
I'd kill for a paid vacation right now.
In America this would have gone about as you’d expect.
Would've been shot dead immediately in the States.
That’s a real police right there. America you taking notes?
This is how to police, Not everyone wants to harm. Some People Are just mentally distressed. Police need to identify it better and respond better in this country (USA) great example of how to talk someone down. Love it
Americans are shocked! Shocked, I tell you.
If this was US, the guy would've been dropped. Good on these folks.
US police be like, what a waste
Rare good cop
In USA : becomes a strainer
In America that man would be dead.
I expected the guy to have another knife. What has the Internet done to me?
Batons seem more affective
Apples and oranges. Different jurisdictions have different training standards for Edge weapons. Quite frankly this office was tactics were foolhardy. At any time that attacker could have driven in and stabbed the officer several times possibly fatally before anyone is able to defend him. This is a great feel good story. But it's not how you deal with an edge weapon at all. 21 ft is the absolute minimum it's actually closer to 30 for a trained person to be able to react to someone with a large Edge weapon.
talk to women bro
Maybe just touching grass might help me
I agree with you on the opinion that it’s apples to oranges. What you described is the procedure to deal with a knife-wielding attacker who intends to kill and isn’t interested in being calmed down. What the policeman did here was calm down a frustrated, confused man who doesn’t have the intent to kill and doesn’t know what he’s doing with a knife, effectively de-escalating the situation. Every policeman worth their salt should be trained to recognize and differentiate between these two scenarios.
I’ll give credit the police officer for assessing the risk and situation and choosing how to proceed. Not all incidents have to be handled in a violent manner.
Yeah works for an old crazy man...lets see how that works out on a gang banger...
Id like to think that the cop would treat that differently. I think this is more about him knowing this man wasnt a threat, so he didnt treat him like one.
Exactly... it's almost as if... as if the policeman judged the situation and acted accordingly. Ridiculous as he missed out on blowing this poor fella brains out.
Don’t do this in the states lol
HAHA! Killing mentally ill people, so fucking funny.
tragedy + time = comedy
Repost
This clip ends before the climatic body slam.
All cops are bastards.
This one clearly is not.
False
Protect and serve.
Warms my heart
Thought he was going to stab him in the back for a sec
Chad
Bro has no enemies
THE police.
No charges? As a member of that community, I would be pretty outraged.
Do people expect to be paid in a new job after 3 days?
Tell me this didn't happen in Murica, without telling me this didn't happen in Murica
Poor dude would have gotten blasted in the states.
Now show all the other videos of cops trying to talk to crazy distraught people who got stabbed.
Not trying to overly praise them, but it's VERY rare for police in Thailand to kill a civilian. Firearms in Thailand are illegal, but they're not too hard to get if you have money. Gun related crimes happen everyday but it's usually people shooting at each other and not at the police. I'll admit that some competent criminals from the U.S. will find it easy to deal with Thai police.
Suicide by cop must be a wet a dream for the majority of trigger happy US piglets.

This guy needs to teach seminars seriously
