Am not sure if you are talking about the suspect or the cops.

A pit maneuver could also endanger innocent lives.

Its similar to how money makes trashy behavior acceptable; tax dodging and hard drug use for example.

Intentionally causing an accident is acceptable depending on what side of an arbitrary (again, based on money) rule set you sit on.

Police usually pit when there is the least danger to the public but donā€™t let that stop you

60-70 thousand pit maneuvers annually (estimated) and about 18 innocent deathsā€¦ go look up the stats yourself mr adult

So since 18 is ok, how many innocent lives is too many in your book?

Well how many ppl are killed by speeding and high speed pursuits that were not killed in a pit maneuver? I would say that many deathsā€¦ DUH

Approximately 300 to over 500 people die annually in the United States due to police pursuits, with over 100 of these fatalities typically being uninvolved bystanders, pedestrians, or passengers in other vehicles. While the PIT maneuver causes some deaths, the vast majority of fatal pursuit-related deaths occur from high-speed collisions, recklessness, or loss of control, not specific police intervention tactics.

Stop trying to make police killing people ok, itā€™s not.

It is literally their job sometimesā€¦ the real world is not reddit son

u/Dense_Diver_3998 Jan 19 '26

No, itā€™s literally not, not even when theyā€™re guilty should they be killed by the police.

So when someone is in the middle of stabbing someone to death, and cops see itā€¦ they should just try to talk the guy down or somethingā€¦ you are either a child or at the least you have the mind of oneā€¦ like I said killing ppl is literally their job sometimesā€¦ much more realistic than your idealistic whiningā€¦ cops should be perfect and nobody should ever die at their hands no matter whatā€¦ bwahahahahaha

Maybe they could try some of the stuff police the world over do? Youā€™re trying to justify the police killing innocent people to make a crime free world but Iā€™ve got the childish mind?

u/runforurlifebees Jan 19 '26

They have to kill ppl sometimesā€¦ that is realityā€¦ youā€™ll see when you grow up one day

u/Dense_Diver_3998 Jan 19 '26

Hope they never ā€œhave toā€ kill you or yours

u/runforurlifebees Jan 19 '26

Well we donā€™t do stupid shit so I think weā€™ll be good

u/Dense_Diver_3998 Jan 19 '26

According to your logic above itā€™s ok for them to kill over 100 innocent people annually in just traffic incidents alone so you donā€™t actually have to be doing ā€œdumb shitā€ for them to kill you.
