To often deadly force becomes the only option due to the actions of the police prior to the use of lethal force.
There are simple actions like Banning the use of chokeholds and stranglehold’s or having a documented use of force policy or having a policy of deescalation that will reduce the frequency where an officer is forced to make a split second decision.
Just because in the end many officer involved shootings are deemed legal doesn’t mean they are necessary.
