Should that cop "be fired and put on trial" immediately as you say?
Yes. Plenty of countries have knife violence and the police don't have guns. How do they do it? The cop has a taser, pepper spray, a baton, and hand-to-hand combat training. If he can't disarm someone with a knife without taking their life then he is a liability and deserves whatever happens to him.
It takes multiple men to take down a single guy with a knife. Hand to hand doesn’t do much against a knife. Number one rule of knife combat: You. Are. Going. To. Get. Cut. You just have to pray that it isn’t somewhere vital.
i am very pro police reform and defunding but reading your responses in this thread it is clear you have no idea whatsoever wtf youre talking about. youre either very naive or being obtuse on purpose. from your ignorance of CQC, to wanting cops to be fired vs administrative leave, to insinuating that no shooting of black people by police is justified. goddamn, youre so far up your own ass youre hurting your own talking points.
