So anything that makes them fearful escalates the situation. You can’t really do much about a natural fight or flight reaction. And since they are there to do a job flight usually doesn’t prevail.
Weird time to take a walk. Weird time to pop a pill. Looking suspect around a middle school and then taking drugs in front of a cop in a school zone. Mix it with fearful bad policing. And bad results.
It’s a dangerous job most people don’t want to do. And just as easy as it is to say police need better training to prevent this type of stuff, most of these scenarios involve bad decisions from the civilian as well.
Statistically more likely to die as a groundskeeper than a cop but go off.
