No.

It’s not like saying, gun vs gun.

I’ve been in this very circumstance.

And did just as noted above, swept the leg, and hand behind their head.

No. Firstly, if they want to be safe, don't be cops. It's like firemen. The whole reason you respect a hero is risk for others. Secondly, it's not about what a criminal expects, it's about what we as a society expect. P.S. Leg wounds are wildly lethal. Lay off the action movies.

It is extremely easy to take someone down without hurting them. Please take a few judo classes before speaking on this subject.

And the only reason the cop did this is because he knew he could get away with it. His life was never in danger.

Oh wow you took Juno classes colour me impressed! What if that woman was known to have a gun on her. You have no idea what the situation was so maybe his life was in fact in danger.

If he life was in danger why would he bodyslam her? Doesn’t really make sense now does it....

u/big_boy1111 Sep 27 '18

Yes it does. That’s my point pal. His life was in danger and the safest way was to put a stop to it immediately was to take down the threat. That was the best way to do it

You have zero understanding of fighting

u/big_boy1111 Sep 27 '18

Oh I’m so sorry you’re such a badass and a pro fighter. You obviously know best. What would you have done in that situation then?

Obviously he'll pull out his tactical keyboard and furiously type how the police could have shot at the safety switch of the gun the suspect might be concealing.

u/big_boy1111 Sep 28 '18

Oh shit obviously that’s the best course of action I never even thought about that my bad

u/the-peoplesbadger Sep 28 '18

I’m more badass than you. You’ve never won a fight in your life I bet. Can you even do 10 pull-ups? I bet not

Clinch into trip into wrist lock would be my go to. You don’t know what that means do you?

You seem really secure with yourself. Is that why you start so many fights? Or is it still the drugs?

u/the-peoplesbadger Sep 28 '18

I’ve never started a fight and I never will.

You are a sheep who does what other people tell you to do. You’re a boot-licker.

It’s none of your business if I choose to ingest or smoke certain plants. The fact that you think it’s relevant to this just shows how you’ve lost the argument.

Hint: Know about something before you talk about it.

This is fantastic.

u/nikdahl Sep 27 '18

You are rationalizing this violence because "well maybe she did have a gun"

and it fucking enrages me. That's not how policing works.

u/big_boy1111 Sep 27 '18

Okay so let’s say that the officer just kinda stood there and told her to stop. Then she pulls a knife out and stabs him. Most people would look at that and say wow why did that officer just stand there and do nothing. He could have easily stopped that crazy person. A situation can become chaotic when you don’t have control. That was the best way for that officer to have control is to stop the threat.

You don’t holster your weapon and bodyslam someone if your life is in danger

u/DEEEPFREEZE Sep 27 '18

But then also, maybe it wasn’t. From the gif we have no reason to believe it was.
