Being that I am a wrestler could that that help

Yes defo

With all due respect to police officers, it's pathetic they would lose to a 15-year old freshman wrestler, or a 6-month white belt in BJJ.
I'm not knocking police officers as much as I'm saying how incredibly effective those grappling arts are. I think they should do a year of each.

Yea it would help

Why instructor walk in boots in the a place where work is done exclusively without shoes...

Officers need a cohesive system for dealing with noncompliant arrestee's that can be incorporated into an on-going in-house use-of-force training program. Right now law enforcement administrators treat this kind of training very carelessly. In many cases, their only concern is doing enough to cover their own asses. Meanwhile, their subordinates are being sent to calls totally unprepared to deal with active resistance. Consequently, when these officers f*ck it all up their administrate branch produces a meaningless training document that allows them to walk away from the incident totally unscathed. Nobody ever asks if the training provided was adequate or legitimate because nobody really cares! Until administrators are held accountable for failing to properly train their staff we'll continue to see excessive force and officers lives will be ruined for no reason...

@@ch0wned You make some fair points but you kind of ruined your credibility with some extremely ignorant observations. There is no such culture that discourages striking while encouraging the use of a firearm. That’s just ridiculous. The real problem lies within a heavily flawed training model that favors Pain Compliance techniques overControl & Restraint. You’re also completely wrong about the usefulness of BJJ. If adapted correctly it’s can be used to acquire and maintain dominant physical control over a noncompliant arrestee.
Your traditional martial arts background doesn’t give you any more insight on police use-of-force than any other casual observer. For example, you recommend more focus on empty hand striking as a solution. Sure, in an unavoidable one on one contest in which it is appropriate to shift into a more self-defense oriented posture, kicks, punches, elbows, and knees are fine. However, in most non lethal use-of-force events the officers will have a numerical advantage. Striking at this juncture doesn’t really play well with the public and it shouldn’t. Also, please sight your statistical source with regard to officers using their firearms. You say that "statistically officers have no issue using firearms to resolve resistance" I'm interested to know EXACTLY where that came from. I'll bet you didn't look at any available stats because if you did you'd see that the overwhelming majority of noncompliant arrestees are overcome with empty hand skills, so stop talking out of your ass.
I'd also like to speak to your point about traditional martial arts having a place in law-enforcement training. Right now there’s a Chinese MMA fighter with very marginal skills who travels around China challenging all of the most revered KungFu masters. He easily beats the hell out of these guys and shatters the mysticism that you seem to be all swept up in. He’s able to do this because there is no mysticism in fighting. There’s only hard work and proven training methods. I've said for years that all fighters are martial artists, but not all martial artists are fighters. For example, Bruce Lee was a martial artist but Benny Urquidez was a battle tested warrior, a real fighter. There's a huge difference between these two men.
I’m glad you have an interest in police/community relations but the opinions you've developed based on your traditional martial arts experience come across as naïve and silly. Additionally, those "murderous, craven, dullards you talk about are the first people you'll call when you find out the hard way how useless your Bushido really is in the real world...
