These are not de-escalation techniques. This episode showcases audio of Grossman's lectures and makes the case that he should not be welcome in Spokane.</p>\n\n<p>Among Grossman's more infamous pupils: the guy who killed Philando Castile in Minneapolis in 2016, a precursor killing that laid the groundwork for the nationwide unrest that sprang up after the murder of George Floyd.\u00a0</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align:center;\">Ask Sheriff Knezovich and Police Chief Meidl to disinvite this merchant of death:\n<a href='mailto:OKnezovich@spokanesheriff.org'>oknezovich@spokanesheriff.org\ncmeidl@spokanepolice.org</a></p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align:left;\">GROSSMAN BACKGROUND</p>\n\n<ul><li><a href='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETf7NJOMS6Y'>\"Conditioned Response\"</a> short doc 2017</li>\n\n<li>\"<a href='https://sports.yahoo.com/george-floyd-death-in-custody-puts-spotlight-on-warrior-training-for-police-195640810.html'>George Floyd death puts spotlight on 'warrior training' for police</a>\" 2020</li>\n\n<li>\"<a href='https://www.insider.com/bulletproof-dave-grossman-police-trainer-teaching-officers-how-to-kill-2020-6?fbclid=IwAR2kmsnNasxiNywosxBzEcAUVUtuyV4J2RQt-TQiBMHsyLStLVIbkJzPe1Q'>Teaching officers how to kill with fear-based warrior tactics</a>\" Insider 2020</li>\n\n<li>\"<a href='https://minnesota.cbslocal.com/2018/05/15/bulletproof-mpd-rcs/'>2 Departments Quit Controversial Police Training</a>\" CBS Minnesota</li>\n\n<li>\"<a href='https://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/militarizing-the-minds-of-police-officers'>Militarizing the Minds of Police Officers</a>,\"\u00a0The New Yorker 2017</li>\n\n<li><a href='https://www.mensjournal.com/features/lt-dave-grossman-the-self-described-killologist-training-americas-cops-w463304/'>The \u201cKillologist\u201d Training America\u2019s Cops</a>, Men's Journal 2017</li>\n\n</ul>\n<p>OTHER SUPPLEMENTS</p>\n\n<ul><li>2020 \"Mindset Bootcamp\" <a href='https://www.cjtc.wa.gov/training-education/vendor-courses/mindset-bootcamp?fbclid=IwAR3BVpHhKWnglKEFRWDZTrcTj13niJ06NAfj9621Zz9Wrlz29wWijuGFxbU'>web page</a> and <a href='https://www.cjtc.wa.gov/docs/default-source/vendors/mindset-bootcamp-oct-2020.pdf?Status=Master&sfvrsn=120fe018_2'>flier</a></li>\n\n<li>\u2018<a href='https://www.thecut.com/2020/06/the-owner-of-cup-foods-speaks-about-george-floyds-death.html?fbclid=IwAR1xZY7nEpsyRQUwKRmrRMDJKV7Vmc5cyasAcAeFU_-BVK0Xk6bpB9kwD0o'>If I Would Have Been Here, George Floyd May Still Be Alive</a>\u2019 The Cut 2020</li>\n\n<li><a href='https://www.inlander.com/Bloglander/archives/2016/02/26/email-reveals-deep-sympathies-to-officer-convicted-of-excessive-force'>\"Email reveals deep sympathies to officer convicted of excessive force</a>,\" Inlander 2016</li>\n\n<li>\"<a href='https://www.spokesman.com/blogs/hbo/2011/nov/04/spokane-cops-salute-karl-thompson/'>Spokane Cops Salute Karl Thompson</a>\" Spokesman 2011</li>\n\n</ul>\n","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/a50ce7bb-f12e-4f21-ad1f-2ef6d44c711a/006-alt-killology-bov6g.png"}
