Changing the Use of Force Standard for U.S. Law Enforcement
Join us as we dive into the U.S. "reasonable" use of force standard, a shield that U.S. law enforcement often uses to justify deadly force. From the tragic shootings of Michael Brown and Breonna Taylor to the unjustified killing of Anastasio Hernandez Rojas, we expose a deeply rooted problem that demands attention and change. The United States needs to embrace a standard that prioritizes “necessary and proportional force” – this standard is what will save lives, not take them.
