Hopefully NYC will now learn something. The problem is not "training." The problem is their fucking cops.

Yep. Seems they resented being trained on "de-escalation" when what they really want to do is bust some heads.

Quote:A majority of New York police officers called the re-training program they were ordered to undergo after the death of Eric Garner a “waste of time”, according to the New York Post.
Garner, 43, died in July after being placed in a chokehold, a move that is banned under police rules, by NYPD officer Daniel Pantaleo. After a grand jury declined to indict Pantaleo, sparking national protests, Mayor Bill de Blasio promised to retrain the entire department, emphasizing tactics such as de-escalation and improving communication between officers and citizens.
