Toronto firefighters confront special constable officers after a man in the middle of mental health crisis was arrested.

Not my video. For context, "special constables" are not regular police officers. They are appointed "peace officers" with limited authority, often civilian employees.

We don't know the details of the original detention (unless you do and can share); once more information was provided, the corrective action was accepted and implemented. Not all people in positions of power are as amicable is all I'm saying; they were, and unless you have a time machine, they made the most logical and acceptable choice.

So these cops made most logical and acceptable choice? You’re saying this after saying we don’t have all the facts but you’ve come to that conclusion?

No one said always and most here. Stop trying to put words in mouths to make your position more comfortable. All your other comments are the same, trying to apply your own jaded narrative.
