@skquinn @rey This is false. Law enforcement have many tools at their disposal. Certain ones are just emphasized over others depending on who is being policed.
We have seem plenty of examples of police de-escalting situations, which they are trained to do.
However, there is rarely a consequence when they resort to violence, especially if the victim is Black.
That's a systemic issue, not a lack of tools. The police are kept this way for a reason.
