I know I’m always on about this when cops or other folks kill some agitated person, but for real y’all — we in the ER see people who are angry, threatening, violent, and scary EVERY shift, and we kill zero of them. We don’t shoot them. We don’t choke them to death. Most of the time we talk them down and that’s it. Sometimes we restrain them, but we do it safely.
I have very scary people blow up at me. Often I literally pull up a chair and we talk it out. Please, we can be better.
