(Ronald) Donat is among at least 29 recruits who died during basic training at law enforcement academies around the country in the last decade, an AP investigation found. Most died of exertion, dehydration, heat stroke and other conditions tied to intense exercise — often on the first day of training, like Donat. Others died several weeks in, sometimes after suffering trauma during boxing or use-of-force drills or collapsing during high-stakes timed runs on hot days.
Experts and police advocates were surprised by AP’s findings — based on an extensive review of lists of law enforcement deaths in every state, workplace safety records and news reports — and said many of the deaths were preventable. No federal agency or outside organization comprehensively tracks recruit deaths, unlike officers who die in the line of duty.
Black recruits represented nearly 60% of those who died, a striking disparity given that federal data show Black officers make up 12% of local police forces. Many carried sickle cell trait, a condition most prevalent among Black Americans that increases the risk of serious injury following extreme exertion.
Sounds like a coping mechanism to me
This entire comment of yours is a hallucinatory coping mechanism, since you seem to think that your group of friends won’t revert to the same barbaric behaviour that you accuse all law enforcement officers of.
If you’re gonna argue like a five-year-old, I suggest you go back to the playground.
Interesting statement from the individual who refused to see police officers as human beings.
Again, you’re hallucinating. I never said that.
Right there in black and white.
Your hallucinations must be getting even stronger if you can read what I wrote again and still think I said something different.
It’s a shame that you don’t understand how language works. You really are a broken soul.
So now you just use childish insults when your childish arguments fail.
Like I said, go back to the playground with the other five-year-old olds.
