I love these old instructional videos

Vid is a fake. If it were a true LAPD vid on baton use the cop would be beating down a black man. That's the LAPD way...

While loudly proclaiming "Stop resisting!" LOL

In the late 60s, BPD officer Arthur Lamb, developed the Lamb Method. Using the modified 30" nightstick, with the T handle.

A number of those impact points were specifically no go locations when I went through my ASP training. Times change.

Never known how hard to "slap" the back of someone's head...

Not even police are allowed to use/carry those anymore (since ~1980s).

My mind went in a completely different direction with this thread title.....

so, "you're not gonna be able to sit for a week" wasn't an idle threat in your household?

Roll of coins works pretty well as a force multiplier, and it's legal. Just sayin'

Today’s training for a scenario like that would have the cop shooting all three guys including the doctor.

Good thing this video is from the LA County Sheriff's office and not the LAPD

That's because they were more effective than a box of sleep aids without the harmful addictive effects...

i used to have one of those, could break a 2x4 with it. Not sure if I still have it or not, could be buried in a box somewhere.

If brute force does not work, you're not using enough.

I want to see this 60's cop using his baton on a couple of today's ANTIFA nit wits LOL

 

[Rob Boudrie]

Some of those impact points are not medically advisable and probably not allowed 2day.

I think people were tougher then. And many police were not some of the absolute units you see on the force today. So it probably evened out.

Batons, Fire Hoses and GSD's. I miss the Good Old Days...

 

[SpaceCritter]

So I'm guessing this would be a definite no-no:
Saw Tooth Iron Wood Stick | Traditional Filipino Weapons

Youths?

What? No thumb cuffs or leather things (saps?)?
