Does NYPD know how to disarm people without going straight to lethal force?

Follow-up question: Has anyone else noticed that NYPD consistently reacts to a person with a knife by shooting them??

Fascists trying to flood the mentions with stupid shit: NYPD is trained on disarming people with knives and continues to not use that training. People who refuse to drop it when directed are often NOT LUCID and don’t know what’s going on. That doesn’t grant you license to kill!

You morons are currently jerking off to a group of ROTC cadets who tackled & stabbed a mass shooter but in your universe, trained NYPD officers are not allowed to do close contact with armed individuals and any suggestion that they do that is wrong?? lmao ok!!!

Gunna die waiting for any mention on any first aid any of those cops rendered to anyone this guy had hurt, too.

Because despite also being trained in first aid, NYPD tends to also never deploy that training in situations where people need intervention prior to EMS arrival.

Holy shit. Cops had plenty of time to tell this guy 20 times to drop the knife, and “de-escalated” by saying “they could get him help” and in all that time, no taser, no mace, nothing.

But according to yall, they HAD to shoot IMMEDIATELY. 🤡🤡🤡🤡

Bootlicking melts your brain.

Turning replies back on so you morons can keep helping my engagement rate. Tell your blue check friends to say stupid shit at me too. Go on, bootlickers!!!!
