LAW ENFORCEMENT
BRAZILIAN JIU-JITSU--THE MARTIAL ART FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT
According to the F.B.I., in 2007 there were 59,201 sworn law enforcement officers assaulted in the line of duty. Over 80% of these assaults (47,495) were committed by unarmed perpetrators who only used their hands and/or feet to attack the officer. It is most important to consider the two biggest reasons why law enforcement officers did not shoot these perpetrators before their unarmed assaults were carried out:
1. Unjustified – Unless someone’s life is at risk, the officer is not justified in using deadly force.
2. Unable – Most physical assaults on officers take place so abruptly that the officer does not have the time or distance necessary to draw his or her firearm or less-lethal weapons, safely.
Since it is so common that officers are assaulted in situations where they are unjustified or unable to use their weapons in their defense, it is imperative that they be empowered with a very effective, court-defensible system of self-defense that will ensure their safety in the worst case scenarios that they are so likely to encounter.
REDUCED LIABILITY
It is a fact that any law enforcement officer who is not confident in their ability to control a suspect with their hands is more prone to resort to their weapons, prematurely, and all it takes is one excessive force incident to dramatically alter the stability of a police department and its relationship with the community they serve. Since the course is based on controlled pain compliance techniques rather than uncontrollable strikes, the physical damage to the suspect is kept to an absolute minimum. Lawsuits and charges of police brutality decrease significantly.
ENHANCED OFFICER PRESENCE
Any law enforcement officer who is not capable of defending him or herself against a physical attack will display less confidence than one who can. This weak “officer presence” is easily detectable and will often cause a suspect to challenge the authority of the officer. Once an officer learns the techniques that are designed to keep them safe during the worst case scenarios, he or she no longer needs to fear the suspect, and for this reason, the course is known to boost an officer’s confidence more significantly than any other factor. This newly-found confidence will lead to enhanced officer presence which will be immediately detected by the suspects making them less likely to assault the officer to begin with.
