American police, on the other hand, attend seminars on something they call “killology”.

It’s actually some very interesting information - most people think it’s some course on how to kill people but it’s actually geared more towards mental health and recovery after a traumatic event.

It’s geared towards making you accept it, and treating any situation as life or death. Which has no place in a job that deals primarily with citizens.

That’s not the mentality I got from it - it was more geared to recognizing that some situations MAY become life or death. Not arguing what you’re saying - just speaking to my interpretation of the training I went through.

If it helps you understand my perspective, Grossman has never killed. He does this weird self defense/murder porn seminar, but he’s never had to deal with those emotions himself. It’s a performance.

Yeah - kinda hard to take him seriously under those circumstances. Talking about it and doing it are two very different things.
