De-escalation Keeps Protesters And Police Safer. Departments Respond With Force Anyway.

quote [ disproportionate police force is one of the things that can make a peaceful protest not so peaceful. But if we know that (and have known that for decades), why are police still doing it? ]

While joking about brightly marked deescalation teams back in the day – everytime they announced a soft approach, it turned out more satisfying for everybody than the confrontational years. This starts with simple things like wearing protection below the clothes instead of above, keeping visors open and the like.
