All else aside, there is a potential cost in training highly skilled combat troops in deescalatory tactics & sending them out in partnership w civilian law enforcement. It pulls them off training in skills that are, you know, escalatory let’s say. And introduces a mindset they ought not bring to war

"Every government lies now and then, but authoritarian regimes go further. They don’t just stretch or hide the truth. They look you in the eye and tell you that what you just saw didn’t happen." ICYMI, propaganda is now part of our politics.
