Police Brutality happens roughly 1,000 times every year in the United States. This results in many people dying or being badly beaten by the police who are supposed to protect us. De-escalation training is about teaching officers to take a step back and assess a situation before taking action to prevent harming anyone. This would make officers more aware and cautious in situations that could end up hurting someone and allow them to make the right choice. By passing a law to require de-escalation training in police departments around the United States, police will be much less likely to harm innocent citizens.
