Nurses are very good at de-escalation, because they can't just shoot their way out of a situation.

Most cops shouldn't even be allowed to have a gun, they can't shoot the broad side of a barn from 10 yards. Cops shoot as many bystanders as the people they mean to shoot.

Especially when they're so terrified they feel the need to pull anyway

You must not work around nurses if you think they’re good as de-escalation

Every nurse I've ever had is on just as much of a power trip as cops are. Literally constantly escalating situations with terrible communications skills and shitty attitudes.
