I am interested in whether the police training manual calls for blows to the back of the head of a suspect who is on the ground but not fully compliant (e.g. is trying to free himself), and if so, why that method is called for.
Does it really need to be explained that their training needs context?

Are you also suggesting their training teaches them to unnecessarily escalate situations by violently apprehending traffic violators?
