You don’t get an option fucking tool. | [
"Why should anyone believe anything he says?",
">\n\nGeorge Santos is the accumulated cluster f*** of what is now the Republican Party.",
">\n\nHe fits the mold.",
">\n\nHe is mold.",
">\n\nHe's livin in the fridge",
">\n\nYou give mold a bad name",
">\n\nIf anyone has a link to the sheet I'd like to sign it.\nedit: It's only for his constituents. \nIf he's your representative get this started.",
">\n\nI think his constituents already picked him",
">\n\nBy “him” do you mean the George Santos they were misled to believe existed before Election Day, or the George Santos that exists in this reality?",
">\n\nThat's disrespectful for the man who saved 120 Jewish people from holocaust. Carried them all to safety on his back. Heard one small child even dangled from his double chin. That's actually where the movie Cliffhanger got its start.",
">\n\nAre we talking about George Santos, accomplished helicopter pilot? 20 years experience? \nIf you look over there that helicopter is called a Skippy. If you listen closely you can hear it go skip. .skip. . skip.",
">\n\nIt can’t be the same one, can it? The George Santos that saved those trapped Chilean miners? Surely it can’t be.",
">\n\nThe same George Santos that wrote the constitution of the United States of America?",
">\n\nWell George, consider me 1/142000th",
">\n\nI'm 2! I'll move to his district",
">\n\nBring your wallet, that part of Long Island is pricey",
">\n\nUnfortunate part in all this is that area leans slightly democratic even with the rich people there. \nGreat Neck is a nice area but fuck driving there.",
">\n\nAnd fuck Manhasset, always acting like they're better than everyone else.",
">\n\nGlen Cove isn't half bad. Also hometown of Ashanti!\nEdit, not Aaliyah",
">\n\nClose.. Ashanti is from Glen Cove. She even shot a few music videos around town.",
">\n\nCrap, wrong 90s hip hop artist, I should be ashamed of myself",
">\n\n\n\"I try to stick by the Constitution. The voters elected him to serve,\" McCarthy said this week. \"If there is a concern, he has to go through the Ethics [Committee]; let him move through that. But right now, the voters have a voice in the decision. It's not where people pick and choose based upon what somebody's press has. So he will continue to serve.\"\n\nThe ethics committee you just dismantled?",
">\n\n\nThe ethics committee you just dismantled?\n\nExactly. McCarthy is a slimy POS, just like any other member of the GOP. No one should believe a fucking word that comes out of his mouth...unless it's \"My name is Kevin McCarthy and I gargle GOP balls incessantly\".",
">\n\nWho's going to be the first Representative to ask McCarthy on camera: Have you no sense of decency, sir? At long last, have you left no sense of decency?",
">\n\nIt'll be a retired GOP member that's not held political office in years, will not be running for any election, isn't part of a PAC, and has no sway on any GOP currently in office.",
">\n\nYou probably nailed it. I'm just kinda surprised someone hasn't used it already - to claim the bite.",
">\n\nGuys, is it possible he is lying?",
">\n\nNah, we should trust him. He would never lie. He’s this era’s George Washington!",
">\n\n\nHe later clarified in an interview on Steve Bannon’s War Room with Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., that he was referring to the more than 142,000 people who elected him in November's race for New York's 3rd Congressional District. Santos said he would be in Congress \"until those same 142,000 people tell me they don't want me.\"\n\nHow convenient, since they can't tell you that for two years.",
">\n\na petition wouldn't suffice?",
">\n\nHe says, \"The people elected me...\"\nBut they didn't. They elected some guy who doesn't exist. I doubt that many of them voted for someone they knew to be a serial liar (malignant narcissist?).",
">\n\nThey elected a serial liar and malignant narcissist into the Oval Office in 2016.\nAll they care about is the “R” next to his name on the ballot.",
">\n\n\"I just need you to find 142,00 votes, OK?\"\n~ Me right now.",
">\n\nGeorge; \"STOP THE COUNT!\"",
">\n\nMy favorite part of that whole thing was the YouTube Supercuts. \nDistricts where trump was currently ahead were chanting “stop the count!”\nDistricts where Biden was currently ahead were chanting “stop the steal”",
">\n\nActually, I believe they were chanting something like “keep counting!” which made it that much more ridiculous lol",
">\n\n142,000 people didn’t vote for you. They voted for the candidate you fabricated. Ffs…",
">\n\nHe's gonna regret that like Elon did, never bluff the mob",
">\n\nHe's probably talking specifically about his constituents",
">\n\nNot just constituants, but specificly the ones that voted for him.\n\nHe later clarified in an interview on Steve Bannon’s War Room with Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., that he was referring to the more than 142,000 people who elected him in November's race for New York's 3rd Congressional District. Santos said he would be in Congress \"until those same 142,000 people tell me they don't want me.\"\n\nHe's already walked it back to an unobtainably narrow category where even if it happened he can just say he doesn't believe they are really the ones who voted for him in the first place.",
">\n\nConsidering secret ballots that's literally impossible to know",
">\n\nThis is hardly the right way to treat a decorated WWII veteran. This man was the sole survivor of the Alamo for christ's sake.",
">\n\nI thought the Highlander would look much more rugged than this.",
">\n\nHighlander? Maybe...it would explain how he had so much time to win those 6 Nobel Prizes.",
">\n\nYeah, I'm sure we can trust his word.",
">\n\nspoiler alert: >!He's lying. He won't resign regardless of how many people ask him to.!<",
">\n\nI don't believe him.",
">\n\n...that's an oddly specific number.",
">\n\nRoughly, the # votes he collected in the election. He won by about 21k votes.",
">\n\nI see. So he's being a jackass, as per usual. I hope he enjoys his two years, because it's doubtful he'll recieve more than that.",
">\n\nMaybe he should do it via Twitter poll. 🙄",
">\n\nSomeone start a sign in sheet.",
">\n\nhow elon of him",
">\n\nHe wont",
">\n\n142,000 people didn’t vote for you. They voted for the candidate you fabricated. Ffs…",
">\n\n\n\"if 142 people ask for me to resign, I will resign.\" \nHe later clarified in an interview on Steve Bannon’s War Room with Rep.

Santos said he would be in Congress \"until those same 142,000 \npeople tell me they don't want me.\"\n\nThat dude is really something special. Just can't pin him down on anything. One minute it's 142 people, the next, it's 142,000. \nTomorrow he's going to say, I did not say 142,000, but 142,000-ish.",
">\n\nI’m pretty sure this is lie, too.",
">\n\nI thought he said 142",
">\n\nHe did, then clarified.\nLike Dr. Evil did when they laughed at a million dollars.",
">\n\nDoes it matter that I'm not american, or in the US of A? He didn't specify.",
">\n\nThat will be easy, where is the petition??",
">\n\nAs soon as he sees the results, well, I mean, like,they have to be standing in a line and listening to the Clash and Springsteen while hummingbirds chirp like a Disney film.",
">\n\nSo is he daring a recall election?",
">\n\nAre we honestly going to start believing anything he says now?",
">\n\nWill he have Musk do a Twitter poll?",
">\n\nTrump said if he lost 2020, we’d never see him again.\nMcConnell said if the Republicans didn’t win the Senate back, he’d retire.\nMusk said if people asked him to, he’d step down.\nAnd now we have this.",
">\n\nSpoiler - he won't",
">\n\nHe’s lied before, why would this time be any different?",
">\n\nWhy are we giving him the option to “resign”. He should be expelled in every sense of the word. He’s a fraud, and at this point no doubt a criminal.",
">\n\nHave you seen his maga speeches. He literally does a trump impersonation the whole time. He even fakes a trump accent. This guy is a sociopath",
">\n\nWhere do I sign?",
">\n\nHe actually said 142,000-ish",
">\n\nOk start the petition",
">\n\n“Rep. George Santos now says he is 142,000 people”",
">\n\nI bet he makes friends with Cruz, Gaetz, and the hate ladies. Seems on brand.",
">\n\nDoesn't Santos remind you of the pathological liar character on SNL, Tommy Flanagan, played by Jon Lovitz. \"I'm a member of the Pathological Liars Club. Actually, I'm the president! Yeah, I'm the president of the Pathological Liars Club. That's the ticket.\"",
">\n\nWhy don't we just lie to him and say that 142,000 did ask.",
">\n\nSorry, I said 142,000 and you have 31,036,528 people. Those are not the same. \n-Jorge \"George Santos\" Rodriguez",
">\n\nBut those people didn't elect HIM. They elected the fictitious qualified candidate he created.",
">\n\nOh yeah now we believe you sure.",
">\n\nAnother lie.",
">\n\nWhere do I sign!",
">\n\nHe won’t.",
">\n\n142,000ish. \nHe actually means 142,000,000,000.",
">\n\nA \"square\" 142,000.",
">\n\nIf I tell Santos that I'm actually 142,000 people will that work?",
">\n\nFuck him",
">\n\nGeorge, please resign. ASAP.",
">\n\nWhere do i sign up?",
">\n\nSaid the pathological liar…",
">\n\nHe’s lying",
">\n\nSure he will.",
">\n\nYeah, but he’s a liar, so…",
">\n\nTotally believe this from the last king of Prussia!",
">\n\nI'm sure a known liar will keep his promise, and not lie.",
">\n\nBullshit",
">\n\nOh look. A liar lying.",
">\n\nNo he won't. Dude is a pathological liar",
">\n\nI think we are way beyond 142K people at this point.",
">\n\nPlease resign Dbag",
">\n\nIronically republicans accuse the Democrats of lying and cheating, meanwhile it's the republicans who are always caught lying and cheating lol",
">\n\nwho the fuck is this spy?",
">\n\nI'm just worried who these chuckleheads will appoint to fill his shoes when he goes... there are even worse choices out there",
">\n\nNarrator: \"he is lying\"..",
">\n\nSantos wouldn’t resign if 150,000 voters in his district signed a petition, the voters should file a misrepresentation grievance against him on any and all actions he takes a house\nrepresentative.",
">\n\nLet me guess, he’s lying.",
">\n\nBut if 142,001 ask him to, he won't. You have to hit it dead on. And he gets to vote.",
">\n\nHe would be happy to resign, but he’s under audit!",
">\n\nHe means 142,000 people from other countries",
">\n\nThe liar says he'll listen to the people! LMAO, yeah right!",
">\n\nStupid question here, why can’t the American people sue this guy or any person in a seat of power when that person lied, cheated and stole? Allegedly.\nAlso who the fuck does back checks on people who are running for seats of power?",
">\n\nIt’s usually the media but if they run as a pro corporate shill they tend to be given the benefit of the doubt. This guy ran and failed as a MAGA Republican so he came back after perfecting his grift.\nThe checks and balances should be their party, as flawed as that sounds. In a perfect world, they’d have a sense of shame and would take action. They only care about power now.",
">\n\nWell that shouldn’t take much effort.",
">\n\ni’m just a girl standing in front of a pathological lier asking him to resign.",
">\n\nNo he won’t",
">\n\nI would laugh so hard if this is another lie",
">\n\nI dont believe him do you?",
">\n\nI hope someone has a petition started. Better that the people take action than expecting any of the GOP to do the right thing. Of course, he'll just claim the 142,000 petition signers are invalid, but it's worth a shot.",
">\n\nThis post needs 142k upvotes.",
">\n\nIs this like when Elon Musk takes Twitter polls and then ignores the results?",
">\n\nExactly.\nElon hasn’t shown himself to be the most honest person either.",
">\n\nAw man... did he lie again? Whaaaa....",
">\n\nHe'll say that the number of votes wasn't that number exactly, so he wont resign.",
">\n\nWhy isn't he strung up in the streets? I'll take the ban from reddit. He lied, cheated and accepted bribes to get into office. And there's proof for it. Along with his own apologies and testimonies. Why isn't he fired at the very least. If you want to play by the far right rules, he should be strung up and beaten. But it's not happening itn.",
">\n\ni totally don't see the goal posts moving /s",
">\n\nHe's just trolling now - \"hey I got in to congress by lying my ass off, what' you gonna do about it??\"\nThis's just what republicans do now - no accountability for their actions ever so they keep just doubling down.",
">\n\nWhere do I sign?",
">\n\nHe’s lying.",
">\n\nResign. I am am asking you, per your request. RESIGN.",
">\n\nLet's hear him out. Has he done anything good in the time he's been there? This could be a case of doing the wrong things for the right reasons, or maybe...BLAAAAAGH!...Ugh! I just threw up in my mouth. How do Republicans talk this way all the time?",
">\n\nWhere do I vote?",
">\n\nLet’s do it reddit.",
">\n\nOk, I asked 142,000 people. They all said \"George should resign\". Everyone. Every single one. Sounds like it's time to wrap it up.",
">\n\nI will resign if 142,000 people ask me to.\nI will resign if 142,000 people in my district ask me to.\nI will resign if 142,000 of my voters ask me to.\nAd infinitum...",
">\n\nIs it wrong to say this motherfucker makes trump seem honest by comparison??",
">\n\n142,000 and my wife, Morgan Fairchild. Yeah, that's the ticket!",
">\n\nWe all know this is another lie right? Right?",
">\n\nSign me up",
">\n\nOne more lie to toss on the pile...",
">\n\nWe know it’s a lie, but wouldn’t it be nice?",
">\n\nno he wont... lol",
">\n\nDon't worry. The metric will always change. 142,000 becomes 143,000 becomes 143,000 Jew-ish people.",
">\n\nNah. Next week it’ll be 300k people. Then 600k. Then if Trump asks him directly. And then finally, he’ll say he had a document from his best George Washington saying that he has always wanted him to be in Congress. \nAnd people will still vote for him.",
">\n\nHello, Mr. Santos. Could you please resign?",
">\n\nWho voted for this POS? This country is full of gullible idiots.",
">\n\nNo he won't.",
">\n\nChallenge accepted",
">\n\nIs…. Is 142000 some codes number?",
">\n\nAnd the internet said \"challenge accepted\"",
">\n\na million could ask him to. he'd always increase the number required when the old one is met",
">\n\nCount me in.",
">\n\nResign",
">\n\nAh, so he’s utilizing the “Elon Musk” style of public feedback response I see",
">\n\nPlease resign.",
">\n\nNo. He should resign regardless. He shouldn't be able to put stipulations on his resignation.",
">\n\nI would rather he remain a stain on the Republican Party.",
">\n\nCount me!",
">\n\nWhy 142,000? Why not 20,000 - the difference between his votes vs the runner up, Robert Zimmerman?\nNot every person needs to take their vote back. If 20k people changed their mind about Santos after all this shit came out then that should be enough.",
">\n\nIt seems that every other news article I'm seeing is about this guy...I'm not saying we ignore the fact that he is a serial liar, but this just keeps getting him more and more name recognition, more followers on social media platforms (why do we follow people we don't like?), etc.\nEven if this ends up costing him the position at the next election, he is LOVING every minute of this. Fame and notoriety can be cashed in on and you can bet that this grifter will be doing just that.\nI don't know the answer - you can't simply ignore people in power, but does he have to be part of every story?",
">\n\nBull sh*t. There is nothing about him that tells us he'd actually do anything he says. Was a waste of space.",
">\n\nHate to point out the elephant in the room. But wouldn't this actually require us to trust this guy?",
">\n\nShould I stay on as CEO?",
">\n\nFeels like a lie…",
">\n\nBut if he gets 140,001 he won't.",
">\n\nI just want 142000 votes.",
">\n\nThis is a lie",
">\n\nHe lyin'",
">\n\nAnd the replacement for ACA is coming out in two weeks, and the Pillow Putz is going to show us the proof any day now.",
">\n\nRight. He’s telling the truth. Just read his track record.",
">\n\nis that a wedding ring on the picture? another lie?! it's hard to catch up with this fella",
">\n\nHe's setting the bar real low.",
">\n\nHe’s lying",
">\n\nWhere is the poll page when you need it.",
">\n\nOk...where do I sign?",
">\n\nWhat's his office number?",
">\n\nAt this point people still believe anything he says?",
">\n\nThat's a very specific number.",
">\n\nCount me",
">\n\nSign me up.",
">\n\nSo where do we sign the petition",
">\n\nI volunteer as tribute.",
">\n\nI can't imagine he would lie about something like this.",
">\n\nWhere do I sign?",
">\n\nWhy don't we just pass a law that states Lawmakers caught lying will be executed. \nSolves multiple problems.",
">\n\n...that's it?",
">\n\nMcCarthy is a piece of dookie for supporting him",
">\n\nMcCarthy knows if it goes to a special election he loses a seat.",

">\n\nDude is lying.",
">\n\nOh I don’t doubt it but be funny to call his bluff lol",
">\n\nIsn’t 142000 the same number Musk said it would take for him to step-down at Twitter?",
">\n\nHe’s lying.",
">\n\nStart a petition",
">\n\nNarrator: “They Did.”",
">\n\nDone",
">\n\nFuck you George, don't let the door hit you on the way out.",
">\n\nPrepare to chase the hell out of that goalpost",

">\n\nWe should all just comment resign on this thread and post it to whatever social media he uses.",
">\n\nTried to use his website to contact him and when I hit send. An error occurred and sent me right back to the beginning. Sounds about right for this POS",
">\n\nOr just do if because you’re objectively a piece of shit",
">\n\nWhen it's all over, he'll be an absolute no one. Not one person, not one business will risk being associated with him. When he's no longer in office, he'll disappear. So, he's going to hold on to what he has right now as long as he can in an effort to validate his very existence.",
">\n\nLet’s get the petition going\nThat’s such a low number. \nFucking liar",
">\n\nHe won’t, don’t waste your time.",
">\n\nHe should have said he'd resign if 142,000 people gave $10 each to him.",
">\n\nAnd you believe him?",
">\n\nIs there a way to initiate a recall vote for Congressional reps?",
">\n\nHouse could expell him. That's about it. Otherwise he's there barring resignation or loss of ability to perform.",
">\n\nShouldn't it be the margin he won by? Obviously however many voted for the democrat in his district would like him gone.",
">\n\nWhere can I sign",
">\n\nPetition link?",
">\n\nI can't trust this guy because he looks like the boss's son on Black-ish who is implied to be a serial killer but is definitely an out of touch trust fund guy and I hate him.",

">\n\n730k-ish",
">\n\nRon Howard: “He won’t”",
">\n\nHe originally said one hundred and forty two. And if 142k is reached he’ll just move the goalposts again.

">\n\nAye",
">\n\nThe LIAR said that? \nNews Flash: He's lying...",
">\n\nOh please. Next he'll say he'll resign if one million people ask him to. Creating some arbitrary number of people needed to pull him from office may buy him a little time, but I think that eventually he might not have the option of remaining in office at all.",

">\n\nHe wants names tallied, so he know who to kill so that he doesnt have to resign.",
">\n\nWhere do I sign",

">\n\nPlease resign.",
">\n\nCount me in.",
">\n\nthere will probably be 284,000 requests by midnight eastern time.. but since this dude is such a phony, i wouldn't put it past him to do something childish and say something to the effect of \"just kdding! my fingers were crossed when i asked you guys, so it doesn't count! naa-naa-na-boo-boo, stick your heads in doo-doo\"",

From the article;
Many of California's reservoirs have also seen boosts from the storms, including a few smaller ones that have recovered fully from drought-driven deficits, according to Molly White, the Department of Water Resources' water operations manager.
But the state's larger reservoirs still have a ways to go, and White said it will take more storms to truly reverse years of dryness. On Thursday, Lake Shasta and Lake Oroville were at 44% and 49% of their total capacity, respectively.
What's more, Southern California's other major water source, the Colorado River, hasn't benefited much from the atmospheric rivers, and its largest reservoir, Lake Mead, is still perilously low. | [

I am not seeing that those numbers would be conflicting?
The historical average is obviously going to be lower than the capacity, so it makes sense that a certain fill level would be a higher proportion of the historical average and a smaller proportion of the max capacity.
Ultimately it being lower than the historical average (especially an average influenced by decades of drought) is an issue and signals there is a way to go still. | [

The historical average, especially in winter, is a managed goal for these reservoirs. If there's too much water held back, the melt in the spring and summer will overwhelm their ability to drain through the dam and run the risk of overtopping. This would be very, very bad. | [

FYI, the US Drought Monitor is junk science, and should never be cited. Their methods and procedures are completely subjective, and frankly often comical. Read their weekly summaries if you have any doubt. They have been known to use excuses like "Weather was too wet and rainy for field work to be completed" as a rationale for maintaining a drought condition.
The bottom line is that when you pay people to look for droughts, they will find droughts even where none exist. The fact that their data products lack any ability to convey areas of excessive precipitation necessarily means all of their output is biased, and useless.
That doesn't mean droughts do not occur, it just means that no one should ever cite the USDM with a straight face. As comedy, however, they are often worth reading.
An honest portrayal of precipitation is available via the USGS Water Dashboard and that, unsurprisingly, shows a much more balanced situation where some areas are dry, some are wet, and most are average. | [

As part of training/certification as an MP in the Army, I got tazed along with 50+ other guys from my unit and most of us responded similarly: instant muscle failure. But there were a couple dudes who were able to resist for surprisingly long periods of time.
The point I'm trying to make is that tasers affect folks differently so you're taught to apply the minimum period of shock necessary to subdue the suspect. The problem here though, is that with however much cocaine this dude had in his system, even 30 seconds of being tazed didn't subdue the guy. | [

This is right answer.
But I have to admit I have some personal bias in this area because the few times I've been around folks who mixed cocaine and weed together, they exhibited the exact same paranoia and behavior as this man. In fact, those folks also ended up getting into car accidents while on that drug combo which is sort of a weird coincidence. | [

Did any of you watch the video? The guy was all over the place, talking nonsense. Couldn’t sit still. The officer speaking to him handled it as professionally as possible. Remained calm, tried to get him to sit still and cooperate for as long as possible. The dude was on drugs. Then he tries to walk away and that’s when the cops use necessary force. Four of them tried to talk to him and get him to stop struggling, none of them were overly aggressive. One cop even tells another to adjust his elbow so he doesn’t hurt him. After refusing to stop struggling, they FINALLY decide to tase him while verbally communicating the action.
I know there are bad cops, but these guys aren’t. It’s just a sad situation all around. | [

I've been watching a lot of "Audit the Audit" lately and it's sorta made me distrustful of law enforcement in general.
But when I watched this video I was sorta struck by how incredibly patient and calm the officer was during the initial exchange. Like when the officer told him to sit by the wall and the guy said that he instead wanted to sit on the sidewalk, the officer was cool with it. This isn't some cop on a power-trip, this is a cop who's willing to compromise and genuinely interested in trying to understand the guy ... all the way up until he ran off into traffic.
I know folks on Reddit have a lot of opinions but what would you do differently if you were this officer? You're trying everything you can to get this man out of traffic but you're unable overpower that cocaine strength. So what do you do? Physically restrain him in the middle of the street? Wait until he feels ready to cooperate? Let him walk freely through traffic?
I can agree that this officer chose an awful option but I think we also need to acknowledge there weren't really any good options available to begin with. | [

Don't let it do that. The interactions on audit the audit are no a representative sample of police interaction. You generally need to be doing something wrong to get on that channel. Rarely is there just something going right being reviewed.
Use the information from the channel to inform you of your rights but don't let it bias your view of any individual officer. | [

So after watching parts of the Darrell Brooks trial, stuff like that has been showing up in my feed.
Out of curiosity, I have watched several of those videos recently and I will say that one thing that really sets Audit the Audit apart from the other "Audit" channels is that he is actually "Auditing" the "Auditors" - in other words analyzing not just the law enforcement representative(s) in the encounter but the auditor as well.
I've found that he has criticized them on several occasions, noting where they were wrong about certain laws/statutes or where they actually should have been more cooperative/calm.
He also takes the time to reference the relevant laws and codes to educate the viewer, rather than just letting the emotional high of "putting law enforcement in its place" or "sticking it to the man" that you see on a lot of other channels.
But I agree it would be easy to let yourself get the mindset that you can't trust any of them, and you have to really keep things in perspective. | [

For sure, drugs in an already unstable person is like a fire waiting to happen, always been like that and always will. How come no sane person would do that even on drugs?

So, looking at this from the perspective of a UK officer I have some thoughts.
This would likely have been treated as a case of ABD here, acute behavioural disorder, which is essentially a catch all term for when someone is expressing extremely erratic behaviour, whilst not always about 95% of the time this will be drug induced psychosis.
From the body cam it’s clear the individual was suffering from drug induced psychosis, likely from the cocaine.
Anyone whose ever had to deal with someone experiencing drug induced psychosis will know they become incredibly strong due to their body going into overdrive, so needing four officers to effect restraint is no surprise here.
Where things diverge, we are taught to treat ABD as a medical emergency as their body going into overdrive from the drugs usually results in cardiac arrest, as such first priority is to effect safe restraint, then get immediate medical help.
Tasering at that range would not be standard practice here in the UK, it would not achieve NMI and we are explicitly taught not to use taser as a compliance tool in the way it’s used in the US.
That being said there would be no issue tasering someone experiencing ABD at a range suitable for achieving NMI.
Him dying hours later tracks with cases of ABD in the UK, after the period of extreme stress the heart is put under it gives out later, this has been observed several times with no involvement of a taser.
All in all this was a tragic outcome, I don’t fault any parties involved, but I think US authorities should start treating drug induced psychosis as a medical emergency primarily, same as it is in the UK. I also question the use of the taser, you likely had enough officers to effect restraint by force and using compliance methods on subjects experiencing psychosis is rarely effective, I don’t however feel this contributed to the outcome in a meaningful way.
NMI - neru muscular incapacitation, if you see videos of someone being tasered and their whole body locks up then NMI has been achieved, for it to happen you need good connection on both probes and decent distance between the probes, distance that would not have been obtained at the range taser was utilised in the footage. | [

">\n\nSo, looking at this from the perspective of a UK officer I have some thoughts. \nThis would likely have been treated as a case of ABD here, acute behavioural disorder, which is essentially a catch all term for when someone is expressing extremely erratic behaviour, whilst not always about 95% of the time this will be drug induced psychosis. \nFrom the body cam it’s clear the individual was suffering from drug induced psychosis, likely from the cocaine. \nAnyone whose ever had to deal with someone experiencing drug induced psychosis will know they become incredibly strong due to their body going into overdrive, so needing four officers to effect restraint is no surprise here. \nWhere things diverge, we are taught to treat ABD as a medical emergency as their body going into overdrive from the drugs usually results in cardiac arrest, as such first priority is to effect safe restraint, then get immediate medical help. \nTasering at that range would not be standard practice here in the UK, it would not achieve NMI and we are explicitly taught not to use taser as a compliance tool in the way it’s used in the US. \nThat being said there would be no issue tasering someone experiencing ABD at a range suitable for achieving NMI. \nHim dying hours later tracks with cases of ABD in the UK, after the period of extreme stress the heart is put under it gives out later, this has been observed several times with no involvement of a taser. \nAll in all this was a tragic outcome, I don’t fault any parties involved, but I think US authorities should start treating drug induced psychosis as a medical emergency primarily, same as it is in the UK. I also question the use of the taser, you likely had enough officers to effect restraint by force and using compliance methods on subjects experiencing psychosis is rarely effective, I don’t however feel this contributed to the outcome in a meaningful way. \nNMI - neru muscular incapacitation, if you see videos of someone being tasered and their whole body locks up then NMI has been achieved, for it to happen you need good connection on both probes and decent distance between the probes, distance that would not have been obtained at the range taser was utilised in the footage."

It takes four officers to handcuff him. He gets tazed several times and is eventually handcuffed.

Ok, you want to get the suspect who is high on drugs under control.
You either use excessive force with the tazer or have multiple officers manhandle him potentially breaking or pulling something.

">\n\nUnfortunately, it also could have been straining his heart (along with the cocaine in his system), even if it wasn't causing the pain compliance response they wanted.",
">\n\nThe cops “said” prelim test showed drugs, I’ll wait until I hear from the coroner.",
">\n\nThe county coroner? The one that works with the PDs? That coroner? \nNarrator: He didn’t have to wait long",
">\n\nBlurg. I haven’t finished my coffee yet. But I stand by the spirit of my statement that until proven otherwise we shouldn’t be assuming that this guy was on drugs, or that drugs played a factor in his death.",
">\n\n\nuntil proven otherwise we shouldn’t be assuming that this guy was on drugs, or that drugs played a factor in his death\n\nThis is right answer.\nBut I have to admit I have some personal bias in this area because the few times I've been around folks who mixed cocaine and weed together, they exhibited the exact same paranoia and behavior as this man. In fact, those folks also ended up getting into car accidents while on that drug combo which is sort of a weird coincidence.",
">\n\nTbf, you don't have to be under the influence of drugs to be paranoid of the police.",
">\n\nTitles are hitting YouTube level now",
">\n\nAll it needs is the thumbnail with a YouTuber making the dumbest surprised face",
">\n\nDon’t forget a large red arrow and dumb words like “JUST HAPPENED!”",
">\n\nAnd a circle ⭕️ that highlights nothing",
">\n\nDid any of you watch the video? The guy was all over the place, talking nonsense. Couldn’t sit still. The officer speaking to him handled it as professionally as possible. Remained calm, tried to get him to sit still and cooperate for as long as possible. The dude was on drugs. Then he tries to walk away and that’s when the cops use necessary force. Four of them tried to talk to him and get him to stop struggling, none of them were overly aggressive. One cop even tells another to adjust his elbow so he doesn’t hurt him. After refusing to stop struggling, they FINALLY decide to tase him while verbally communicating the action. \nI know there are bad cops, but these guys aren’t. It’s just a sad situation all around.",
">\n\nI've been watching a lot of \"Audit the Audit\" lately and it's sorta made me distrustful of law enforcement in general. \nBut when I watched this video I was sorta struck by how incredibly patient and calm the officer was during the initial exchange. Like when the officer told him to sit by the wall and the guy said that he instead wanted to sit on the sidewalk, the officer was cool with it. This isn't some cop on a power-trip, this is a cop who's willing to compromise and genuinely interested in trying to understand the guy ... all the way up until he ran off into traffic.\nI know folks on Reddit have a lot of opinions but what would you do differently if you were this officer? You're trying everything you can to get this man out of traffic but you're unable overpower that cocaine strength. So what do you do? Physically restrain him in the middle of the street? Wait until he feels ready to cooperate? Let him walk freely through traffic?\nI can agree that this officer chose an awful option but I think we also need to acknowledge there weren't really any good options available to begin with.",
">\n\n\nI've been watching a lot of \"Audit the Audit\" lately and it's sorta made me distrustful of law enforcement in general. \n\nDon't let it do that. The interactions on audit the audit are no a representative sample of police interaction. You generally need to be doing something wrong to get on that channel. Rarely is there just something going right being reviewed. \nUse the information from the channel to inform you of your rights but don't let it bias your view of any individual officer.",
">\n\nSo after watching parts of the Darrell Brooks trial, stuff like that has been showing up in my feed. \nOut of curiosity, I have watched several of those videos recently and I will say that one thing that really sets Audit the Audit apart from the other \"Audit\" channels is that he is actually \"Auditing\" the \"Auditors\" - in other words analyzing not just the law enforcement representative(s) in the encounter but the auditor as well.\nI've found that he has criticized them on several occasions, noting where they were wrong about certain laws/statutes or where they actually should have been more cooperative/calm.\nHe also takes the time to reference the relevant laws and codes to educate the viewer, rather than just letting the emotional high of \"putting law enforcement in its place\" or \"sticking it to the man\" that you see on a lot of other channels. \nBut I agree it would be easy to let yourself get the mindset that you can't trust any of them, and you have to really keep things in perspective.",
">\n\nI agree. Audit the Audit is a great channel. Educational, informative and objective. \nIt's also important to remember that the interactions posted because there is something interesting legally or interaction wise to comment on. Because of this the average video found on the channel should not be used to conclude that what the channel is displaying is typical or average behavior on behalf of police or citizens.",
">\n\n\nIt's also important to remember that the interactions posted because there is something interesting legally or interaction wise to comment on.\n\nI think that's something people are still getting used to. With the prevalence of pretty much anything on the internet, it's very easy to convince yourself something is much more common than it actually is.",
">\n\nI for one just don’t buy the narrative that these incidents don’t count just because they are statistically rare. They ARE happening every day in absolute numbers, and frankly I don’t give a damn about the percentages. Civil rights are not to be violated, PERIOD. I give no credit for “but that doesn’t usually happen”.",
">\n\nFrom what I can hear he crashed his car while high on coke running around telling people someone was after him and resisting arrest... What does skin colour mean here? Nothing at all\n\"Is it because I'm black????!!!\"\nNo it's because you are stupid",
">\n\nIt was because he was high.",
">\n\nYou can be high and not do stupid shit\nHe did stupid shit and got what he got",
">\n\nEveryone is different and drugs effect everyone differently. Saying \"you can be high and not do stupid shit\" is like saying \"you can run a 4 and a half minute mile\". Yeah, it's possible. That doesn't mean it's possible for everyone.",
">\n\nFor sure, drugs in an already unstable person is like a fire waiting to happen, always been like that and always will. How come no sane person would do that even on drugs? We both still here and probably did have some fun in the past but wasn't this stupid. Also it doesn't remove the fact he acted like a lunatic on the streets endagering other law abiding citizens, on drugs or not.",
">\n\nSo, looking at this from the perspective of a UK officer I have some thoughts. \nThis would likely have been treated as a case of ABD here, acute behavioural disorder, which is essentially a catch all term for when someone is expressing extremely erratic behaviour, whilst not always about 95% of the time this will be drug induced psychosis. \nFrom the body cam it’s clear the individual was suffering from drug induced psychosis, likely from the cocaine. \nAnyone whose ever had to deal with someone experiencing drug induced psychosis will know they become incredibly strong due to their body going into overdrive, so needing four officers to effect restraint is no surprise here. \nWhere things diverge, we are taught to treat ABD as a medical emergency as their body going into overdrive from the drugs usually results in cardiac arrest, as such first priority is to effect safe restraint, then get immediate medical help. \nTasering at that range would not be standard practice here in the UK, it would not achieve NMI and we are explicitly taught not to use taser as a compliance tool in the way it’s used in the US. \nThat being said there would be no issue tasering someone experiencing ABD at a range suitable for achieving NMI. \nHim dying hours later tracks with cases of ABD in the UK, after the period of extreme stress the heart is put under it gives out later, this has been observed several times with no involvement of a taser. \nAll in all this was a tragic outcome, I don’t fault any parties involved, but I think US authorities should start treating drug induced psychosis as a medical emergency primarily, same as it is in the UK. I also question the use of the taser, you likely had enough officers to effect restraint by force and using compliance methods on subjects experiencing psychosis is rarely effective, I don’t however feel this contributed to the outcome in a meaningful way. \nNMI - neru muscular incapacitation, if you see videos of someone being tasered and their whole body locks up then NMI has been achieved, for it to happen you need good connection on both probes and decent distance between the probes, distance that would not have been obtained at the range taser was utilised in the footage.",
">\n\nThank you for the thoughtful perspective. I often wonder what cops in other countries think about stories like this that come out of the US.",
">\n\nGenerally: \"How the fuck are they this bad at their jobs?\"",
">\n\nMostly \"I wouldn't want to be a cop when everyone can have a gun\". It changes everything.",
">\n\nITT: People who didn’t watch it the bodycam video. He crashed his car while high on coke and MJ, was running around saying people were trying to kill him, then ran from the cops and fights them.\nIt takes four officers to handcuff him. He gets tazed several times and is eventually handcuffed. He’s conscious snd breathing and gets taken to the hospital and has a medical emergency FOUR AND A HALF hours later and everyone in these comments are foaming at the mouth like it’s police brutality. The video is on LAPD’s YouTube channel.",
">\n\nOk, you want to get the suspect who is high on drugs under control.\nYou either use excessive force with the tazer or have multiple officers manhandle him potentially breaking or pulling something.\nIs there a third option when a guy is not in his senses and is running intro traffic and potentially causing an accident while screaming nonsense?",
">\n\nI was pissed until I watched the video. \nThat headline is what used to be referred to as \"yellow journalism.\"",
">\n\nCan you share a link to the video?",
">\n\nIt's in the comments",
">\n\nIsn’t the BLM organization extremely corrupt? The organization isn’t the same thing as the movement.",
">\n\nYep. You'd be correct",
">\n\nBlack Lives Matter founder should be in jail though, she took all the money and just kept it and bought herself nice houses.",
">\n\nSounds like a church pastor.",
">\n\nActual headline: Man crashes car, acts erratically when officers arrive, attempts to flee, resists officers and is tased- dies 4 hours later at hospital; happens to be the cousin of BLM founder.",
">\n\nMy guy tried all the keywords to save himself \"they're trying to George Floyd me\", \"they're trying to kill me \", while not listening to the cops, trying to run away.\nThis is why no one believes shit. Half the world isn't going to watch this video and just be outraged another black man died. \nFucking joke .",
">\n\nLook at these fucking comments. Nuance and critical thinking is dead in this country."
