i agree (o)

the safety and threat response reads as spin to me

this is a video of an officer interacting with a person tased unconscious

you are able to render safety and abate threat and provide care

the person in the video is unconscious lowering threat to zero and increasing officer safety and yet the officer causes harm

another situation where the officers rendered safety and abated threat but ended in the death of Freddie Gray

i think it's offensive both to and of officers to argue safety broadly

as if to say any scenario of providing care creates danger to an officer's safety
