Don't fool yourself into believing that because you fired your gun a few years ago or know how to fire it, that you somehow are competent in tactics and skill to actually save your life without endangering others and yourself. When that door gets kicked in at 3am, you will be on 100% autopilot. What will govern your actions? Your training habits, repeated many times -- or NOTHING.

We went from “fight to win” to “fight to not get sued.”

Guess which one gets cops hurt.

Modern defensive tactics training has become so obsessed with liability, policy, and looking good on bodycam that a lot of officers are being taught to hesitate instead of dominate.

They’re drilled on how to stay “reasonable” instead of how to end the threat quickly and decisively. They’re taught to survive the encounter instead of winning it.

Here’s the problem: Real fights don’t care about your department’s use of force policy or how it will play in court six months from now. When someone is trying to take your gun, smash your head into the pavement, or stab you, hesitation gets you hurt — or worse.

The old school mindset was simple: Train cops to win. Train them to be dangerous when they need to be. Train them like their life depends on it, because it does.

We’ve swung so far in the other direction that a lot of rookies are coming out of the academy more worried about the aftermath than surviving the moment.

You can’t de-escalate every situation.

You can’t talk your way out of every fight.

And you sure as hell can’t afford to second-guess yourself when the hands start flying.

We need to bring back training that actually prepares cops to win violent encounters — not just survive them long enough to write a report.
