That's assuming the premise "it is a bad idea" is true.
I also don't believe it is inappropriate for the police to suggest that physical restraint isn't working and that something else should be tried (as that is there area of expertise)
- ggchappell 8y agoI don't think it's inappropriate either. But we should note that police do not have expertise regarding the administration of drugs. Someone with no expertise in a field can suggest anything they want to. Those with expertise who are actually making the decisions need to be held to account for them.
- JshWright 8y agoI absolutely agree that the folks pushing the drugs are the ones responsible. My point is that it is reasonable for police to say "we're getting our asses kicked, this isn't working, can you sedate this person?"
