We put too much stock in training here, for things that should be obvious. How do we know you shouldn’t do that? I haven’t had any police training.
This is related to that “qualified immunity” bullshit. Somehow we let what could have been an appropriate thing turn into cops being above the law except in rare cases they were specifically trained for and there is existing case law. Bullshit. All too many of these look interesting headline cases start with “any sane person knows …” yet cops are above the law
