Frequently Asked Questions

What is disparity of force in law enforcement?

Disparity of force is a principle that acknowledges differences in physical attributes like age, size, and strength between an officer and a subject. It dictates that an officer may need to use less force against a weaker or older individual and can justify greater force against a physically superior threat.

What happened in the Oklahoma City police incident discussed?

An Oklahoma City police officer slammed a 70-year-old man to the ground during a traffic stop. The officer was placed on administrative leave, and an internal investigation was launched due to concerns about excessive force given the age and stature of the individual.

What is Code 4 Concepts (C4C) Police Jiu-Jitsu?

Code 4 Concepts, developed by Chad Lyman, offers a defensive tactics program for law enforcement that heavily incorporates Jiu-Jitsu and grappling, alongside striking and weapon retention techniques, to prepare officers for combative encounters.

Why is understanding stress important in firearms training?

Understanding stress is crucial because it significantly impacts cognitive function and physical performance. Training under stress helps individuals develop unconscious competence in skills like marksmanship, allowing them to react effectively in high-stakes situations like gunfights, rather than consciously thinking through every step.
