“Don’t make a wrong move,” the officer said as he pinned the struggling subject to the ground. “Period.”

The officer tightened the handcuffs around the subject’s thin wrists.

“Ow, ow, ow, it really hurts,” the subject exclaimed.

The officer pressed his weight into the subject’s small body while school staff watched it all unfold. The person he was restraining was 7 years old.

      The problem is the pool of humans from which cops are drawn: trade school burnouts, fucked up vets, 2nd amendment gun nuts, right wingers, high school drop outs, power hungry beta males, people too stupid to get an advanced degree or learn a trade.

      Add in the industry’s secrecy and closed nature.

      You can’t train your way out of that.

      The police forces that employ them are the ones providing the training on how to assault little children.
