[QUOTE="sSubZerOo"][QUOTE="BMD004"] You're acting like cops are ninjas or something. A cop can't really do much more than any random joe from off the street. Their hand to hand training is minimal.BMD004
That is in fact wrong.. Police officers are trained in numerous take downs and they have to pass constant physical tests often times to insure they are capable of what they are doing.. Its a freaking 8 year old kid, are you trying to tell me that a adult can't take down a 8 year old with out resorting to pepper spray.. Than why the hell is this person a police officer to begin with? How am I going to trust them to handle a situation correctly with adults?
Knowing how to do something and actually being able to do it are two different things. Police don't get near enough training to be able to do a lot of what they learned on the streets. And my uncle used to smoke. Some crooks got in a car and tried to run him over before. He had to sprint for his life and he got behind a tree and the guys crashed. He had to be taken to the hospital because he couldn't breathe because he smoked. He's quit since then, but if the physicals are anything like you are saying, there is no way he would have passed. And he's a fit guy. He's built. Now just imagine all of the fat, old police officers out there... there is no way all of those guys can pass any kind of tough physical tests. And yes, police do take classes (my aunt tore her ACL during a class where her instructor was going to take her down), but learning in a class and applying that on the street are two completely different things. If you don't practice it constantly until you have the technique perfect and it is second nature, it is going to be difficult to do it to a resisting person on the street. P.S... what's wrong with pepper spraying a kid? Pepper spray is temporary and nobody gets hurt.1. this is why "Kid was in a cla$$ for kids with behavorial problems" 2. cops havce taken many people down with tazers or pepper spray before who head knives and guns.... so i think a cop can figure out how to handle a child who has a issues. they never talk to him. you don't go spray a child with peper spray sepcially when he has a a behavorial problem. which maybe what the parents should see if there anything that may help him.
