The cop is less likely to be scared and over react. They're less likely to mess up and hurt someone unintentionally. They are less likely to get hurt. It's less likely to result in them deciding to punish someone, which is a common theme even in this thread, when their lawful goal is simply to restrain someone. There's pretty much no scenario where better trained LEOs doesn't make for a better situation in this kind of thing. Let's be fair here, unless those officers were instructors, you have an absolute master versus what amounts to maybe some blue belts. But it makes the point that more and better training is important because while I may not have much faith left in law enforcement, they do have a job to do and plenty of the people they legitimately have to go hands on with WILL have grabbling training. |

View Quote There've been a few knuckle heads die from compressed thoracic cavity. Cops under the incorrect impression that "If you can talk, you can breath" while sounding logical doesn't cover the totality of circumstance when someone is hysterical and already in O2 deficit. We can argue whether or not the suspect originally put themselves in that predicament or their previous ingestion of drugs would have killed them anyway. But, given the display of LEO intellect in some instances and areas, I don't see it being a bad idea to try to stay away from more dangerous techniques. That feels a little contradictory to my position that RNC should be handed out like candy. |

Holding someone on the stretcher who's getting out of control is one thing, taking down an actively combative drugged-up methhead who's on their feet, might be armed, and completely psychotic is a different story. Even if a crew did it, would their agency ever encourage that level of engagement? |

I think it was Jocko Willink on one of his podcasts mentioning that police should be spending 1/3 of their time training. Not necessarily all combatives, but you get the idea.

Not necessarily all combatives, but you get the idea. Obviously that would be impossible for most departments with their staffing levels, but curious if the idea otherwise had merit. View Quote My first agency dedicated a week to training...every four years. Figure you get 182 days of 12 hrs each year, that's 2184 hrs each person works annually. You'd be averaging roughly 12 hrs per year in refresher training, plus about 2 hrs for qualifying with a pistol. It was optional to go take a 40 hr specialty class each year, but if you did that got you up to maybe 60ish hours of training annually. In other words, 2% of your paid time was training, the rest was working. Nominally a squad was 10 officers and a supervisor. At times staffing levels were so bad it might be down to only 2 or 3 patrol units...covering an area with maybe 25-50k residents. Increasing training from 2% of the time to 30% of the time would mean only having 1 or 2 cops on the road to cover that region. Oh, and your pay is roughly comparable to that of a high school teacher. In contrast my current agency is much more focused on training. For a while their staffing levels were good enough to enable a solid 20 hrs of training a month, so 240 hrs a year..almost 10% of your time in training, plus optional extra classes. Staffing levels decreased though, and call volumes went up, and shift assignments changed, and now it's down to only 70-80 hrs a year, plus optional classes (so maybe 120 hrs annually). I sincerely doubt there's a single agency in this country that can afford to have their people training even 25% of the time. |

My Karate and BJJ instructor was also a vice cop and also trained prison guards. One day he brought in his gun belt, retention holster, Glock and cuffs. First he taught us how to cuff someone and the technique taught to cops. Then he proceeded to teach us how to defeat being cuffed and lock up a cop on the ground in such a way that you can easily pull their gun out of their retention holster and do what you will with it.
He said he was teaching us in case we decided we didn’t want to be arrested if we found ourselves in that situation though he advised against it. This wasn’t a one time thing we learned, it was practiced. Mr. Hughes is a bad ass dude. I feel bad for any cop that runs into a high level BJJ practitioner that doesn’t want to be arrested. |

My point remains: The video in the OP was a situation that clearly called for more force than was (allowed to be) used. He would have been in cuffs FAR sooner and with less risk to both himself and those trying to get him under control. It's fair to point out that they also appeared to very much not know what they were doing. If you are taking the position that striking has no place in the use of force by law enforcement and isn't itself "a skill," then I completely disagree with you. It's absolutely a skill, and along with many other things it's absolutely necessary to have it. |

One would think logic would dictate, if for no other reason than self preservation and to make their job easier, they would spend some personal time or even >gasp< their own money How much personal money do mechanics spend, getting better or specialized tools to make their job easier? Says something about the mentality, I think. I know some cops do train on their own time and dime. Kudos to them. I'm not defending any LEO's who actually say that (I never heard that uttered), but this is kind of a low resolution view. If I came to work for you as a machinist and never used a certain piece of equipment or executed a certain technique, would you really expect me to pursue training on that at my own expense, and on my own time? And if a state/county/city is going to hold you criminally responsible for literally everything you do (and we all know that's the case times ten), and measure every use of force you conduct with a micrometer, they also retain the obligation to properly train everyone to a competent level, and maintain that. Again, I'm not saying people shouldn't train, and of COURSE they should stay in fucking shape. Any barracks I worked at, the gym was almost always occupied. It's also true that they do offer really good defensive tactics training that some are just going to refuse to attend. It's just kind of a deeper topic than it might seem. I've heard it a lot, and from many other places. The consistent pattern is that it was a union thing. If you expect me to be able to "X," you need to give me time "on the clock" to train to be able to do "X." You see this even when it should be a basic prerequisite for the job. Stay in shape, maintain proficiency in skills expected of the job, etc. |

The issue I have with any of this is that the amount of time and practice required to actually become skilled at grappling will never be sustainable at a department level. Add to that the fact that the better grappler will usually end up with the weapon(s) and I'm not sure I think cops going hands on like this is all that well advised. I'm not saying I have a better idea because pain compliance (taser/oc/baton) also is not a panacea.
The cops that train BJJ at the gym where I do judo have joked about if they see any of us when they roll up on a call they are just gonna keep driving LOL. I think it would take more than those four cops to even get me to the ground much less prevent me from standing back up. |

I mislabeled the third one. It's been a long time since I was able to run through all 65. The standing choke was great. BJJ has bastardized what jujitsu once was. I agree that judo, even as it existed within jujitsu, before Kano, is very underappreciated. |

Thanks for the Judo compliments. I don't do a lot of wrestling takedowns after 12 stitches on the eyebrow from a knee.
Also thanks for not clowning the Facebook reel that didn't hotlink. I'm slow and fat. My comment still stands that 3x per week for 3 month of BJJ at the academy would be excellent training. Good PT that builds confidence and the ability to deal with resistant opponents. They won't be "good" probably the equivalent of a 1 stripe white belt but they would have good understanding of a takedown, side control and mount positions as well as a few armlocks. I understand that grappling presents the opportunity for suspects to grab service weapons, etc. But sometimes you don't get a choice. I see all to often the favored technique expressed in posts here about beating their face, smashing ribs and pain compliance. If you are down there beating their face you could be gift wrapping them up instead. |

View Quote Standing choke was unexpected, I couldn’t tell how much of it was Gi or not. The Gi chokes are another component of it the adds the value . The Gi chokes seem to come from every where, and with the hoody fad they are especially easy to get. |

It's fair to point out that they also appeared to very much not know what they were doing. If you are taking the position that striking has no place in the use of force by law enforcement and isn't itself "a skill," then I completely disagree with you. It's absolutely a skill, and along with many other things it's absolutely necessary to have it. View Quote My position was repeated in my post above. Your preference for beating faces and breaking ribs is not doing cops any favors. From lawsuits to public setiment. Getting him into cuffs "sooner" and with less danger I would disagree with. Broken hands are a real thing with punches. But if you want to reduce all risk I guess just take anyone and everyone before they pose a threat. Otherwise you are going to assume some risk. I'm reminded of the story of Kelly Thomas. You guys keep earning your reputation. |

View Quote I get what Fargo is saying, I went through Norfolk Sheriff academy in 95( navy used it for security training)most of the hands on was pain compliance techniques, I have no idea what cops get taught now. I don’t think he is saying beat heads in or breaking ribs. Most of us aren’t as talented as you are and don’t have the time to get that good. A prod here to keep someone where u want them or move them where u want them is how I read it. I think striking does have a place for sure, but shouldn’t be the first technique to go to unless that’s all u got. Still think the sap moves the bar over to everyone deciding fighting isn’t worth it. |
