The commentary on this video is the FUNNIEST!! And so true. They have a duty to stay physically fit. They also needed to NOT engage with this man. In my opinion the police shouldn’t have engaged here. Or at least like you said, make a connection with him instead of be a doofus. I want to ask him if he is a veteran through my phone! Also, he seemed like he was suffering with some mental illness and/or psychosis. The officers need to educate themselves on this so they can disengage until they have appropriate backup help and information.

A little research on this showed that he is a new hire and had just recently completed training when this awful event happened. He was hired in this physical condition. The police chief that assisted in the arrest introduced the new LEO, Josh, during the January town council. Josh then trained for 90 days and this happened shortly after his training was complete. Sheesh.

90 days of training? Shit that’s how long training to handle calls in a call center takes, should be a far higher standard for police

If true, then the chief screwed everyone in that town. Josh is going to have to wrestle just about every day, because no one is going to take him seriously as an officer.

John, you mentioned the officer may have had a tough time reaching around his own waist to get the taser. Let me share something that may sound a bit weird but it works, and that is when we reach around and are a bit heavy, we tend to inhale for that reach, but here's the clincher, inhaling actually makes it more difficult to reach around our waist. By EXhailing, you can reach farther around. Try it both ways, inhale turn then exhale and turn, standing and you will see how much a difference it makes. EXhailing seems to relax the torso so you can twist. A funny but good way to train yourself how to get in the habit of doing the opposite of inhaling is to do it on the toilet. That's right, after you've done your business and you are ready to wipe, EXhale as you reach around, LOL it works!

[@bwalsh1105]

@@chuckrudder4246 look I fully support law enforcement and believe the overwhelming majority of police officers do the right thing. But this whole encounter was basically an officer going into panic mode to get the guy into custody. And then add to the fact that he was horribly unprepared and made so many other mistakes while trying to detain the individual. I don’t have all the facts so I can only go off of the video provided. I’m not sure what probable cause the officer had to detain the individual in the first place. But his lack of good verbal communication and then just immediately escalating the situation to physical detention is just the wrong way to handle this and arguably violated this man’s rights in the process. And I also understand that laws vary from state to state and town to town and that it’s “possible” no rights were violated. But an officer can’t just vaguely accuse you of something without probable cause and then immediately move to physically detain you in the manner this officer did. He’s an embarrassment to good police officers everywhere. All these kinds of interactions do is give good officers a bad name and put taxpayers on the hook for potential lawsuits against the police department in the future.

[@milesmccall2301]

"Not a great stop to begin with" is a massive understatement. Absolutely no reason for the officer to go hands on with the guy the way he did. The vet showed no indication of being dangerous.

Also he didn't need to be stopped, that's one of the old school bullshit assumptions we let law enforcement get away with. Noncompliance is not attacking. Resisting is not attacking. The cops, nor anyone else, were never in danger. In this situation, the only reason the cops "needed" to physically force immediate compliance was their pride. Despite what we've been told, there's no reason non-compliance/resisting/refusing arrest for low-level/nonviolent crime can't be handled with a ticket, instead of a fight in the street over moving a cone.
