That's the point. The #8CantWait proposal is problematic because it calls for strict bans without accounting for real world situations.
As for active shooter situations, guidelines now call for the first responding officer to immediately move in and attempt to stop the shooter by any means necessary. They aren't supposed to wait for a SWAT team to respond. It's ridiculous to propose separate use of force rules for them.
Like I said, exceptional circumstances can be exceptions to the rules. We can define a separate RoE for dealing with clear terrorists, but most cops will never engage with a terrorist.
It doesn't feel like you're trying to make a charitable interpretation of what everyone is asking for. You're welcome to suggest improvements to the language, but writing off the idea because of a "well actually" attitude smells of ideology.
Not at all. The problem is that the proposal is absolute and doesn't contain exceptions. It feels like you're intentionally missing the point due to ideology.
