    Wow.
    Yes.
    Cops are not judge jury and executioner, and they should be able to de-escalate almost any situation, it’s literally their fucking job.
    Never mind that most other police forces around the world, while also bastards that serve capitalism and the state, still manage to enforce their authority without guns. So maybe just stop there for a minute and think about that entirely fucked up statement you just made, and what makes you think that’s normal, let alone justifiable.

      You have unrealistic expectations. Not every situation can be de-escalated. And when violence is actively occurring, sometimes shooting someone IS the most reasonable de-escalation.

      If you’re saying most police forces around the world don’t have guns, that’s complete bullshit.

      If you’re saying most police forces around the world enforce their authority without pulling out their guns, the same applies to the US.

      You are in an echo chamber and believe things that aren’t true.

        And you live in a fairytale world. Do some research, police in the USA murder civilians at an absolutely alarming rate compared to other developed countries.
