        in England they deal with people with knives daily. The cops don't have guns and no one gets killed.

        the militarization of police in this country is a shame in my opinion. We can agree to disagree and leave it at that

        I'm actually more ashamed that people raising their kids to fight, obstruct or disregard what police tell them to do
