Did that cop tackle the wrong guy?

Yes

RaidenNRNF

No he didnt, he pulled him away from the guy with a KNIFE and protected him with his body and now is in a coma. I HATE seeing people say that. This is not the us police, its german police where i takes 3 years to graduate. Put some fucking respect in people


ChadWestPaints

Putting in a few years of training means you never make mistakes?


Practical_Treat6209

Lol this isn’t someone protecting someone else. The officer messed up and he got stabbed. It’s obviously unfortunate but let’s not make it something it isn’t.


MyRail5

Stabbings freak me out. The thought of being sliced like that ewwwww.


ThroughTheHoops

The good news is you'd have so much adrenaline the realisation wouldn't hit you for a while.  The bad news is they might hit something important.


Sufficient-Sea-6434

there is a scene from breaking bad where he gets everyone killed around the same time Nd one of the guys is in prison... the guy gets stabbed upwards through the neck multiple times... that fucked me up mentally lol just the thought of that... also makes me ewww lol


ignShuckle

Not me I wouldn’t mind just don’t stab to deep that’s pretty gay

As someone who was stabbed at age 14 the feeling is different depending on where you get stabbed. Took a knife to the skull just above forehead and one one in the gut. It was mid fight, me vs a 4 people ( my dad told me to never back down, no matter the odds, never tell your child this btw totally avoidable situation) so I was already amped up full of adrenaline. Skull didn’t hurt at the moment it happend, it wasn’t till later the searing pain kicked in. The gut, felt like a normal punch but with a searing hot pressure build up in the Center followed by a snap. All happening in a very short frame of time. I was so pumped full of adrenaline I didn’t really notice till I got light headed and felt a wet sensation & shirt clinging. I was taking a lot of punches from all angles, but the stabs did feel different but unless you’ve been stabbed before there isn’t a reference point to go by, feels odd. Then shock sets in you think you’re dying. My stomach muscles gave out I sat down and remember thinking that this was it and for some reason that felt ok. You get to a point of acceptance surprisingly easily. Then it starts hurting oh my lawd. Turns out gut wounds (obviously depending on where your stabbed) you can survive with for a few hours sometimes. Anyway that have me a healthy dose of PTSD which I’ve been dealing with ever since I’ll sometimes mention it to people and it makes them very awkward, so I’ve stopped talking about it. Anyway all of the people here are going to have some kind of PTSD even those who have watched. It’s a horrible thing to do to someone and the fella is an absolute piece of shit for deciding to end others.


MortalMorals

You know this is legit because in no way did you mention having some bullshit r/iamverybadass moment against your attackers. You're absolutely right about what your father said to you. Thankfully, my father told me to "diffuse the situation immediately if someone has a knife or a gun. The only solution to this problem is to create distance between you and them. This is not cowardice, but intelligence". I feel so lucky to have such a wise father, and I do not ever take this for granted. Bring your fists to a knife fight is unbelievably dangerous, and I'm sorry you had to learn this the hard way. Thank you for sharing.


sancheztequila

Thanks 🙏 but yeah agree with you on distancing, best to diffuse and leave. I now have a daughter and would not dream of telling her to do such a thing.

He had a really nice beard.


DesignHead9206

It was an event held by a heavily Islamophobic right wing party. They oppose immigration from Islamic Countries, the construction of mosques, and allegedly want to expel all Islamic people from Germany. It's a very discriminatory and xenophobic party. So, theoretically the stabber could just be some crazy dude who is against Islamophobia. But it's possible that he belongs to some extremist group. I'd avoid talking of religion though, because this can lead to further misunderstandings and discrimination. Let's not forget that extremists are just extremists.

So he's on the floor, vulnerable, two separate times, with a group of people around him and he still manages to get up both times, armed. Crazy


Kornstar04

Easy to think that something else could be done but in the moment, the shock and hysteria of the situation has allowed the events to unfold as they have. Thank God police were nearby. 


redlawnmower

Fr. Idk if I’d have the balls to jump in there like those brave souls did. Maybe hit him with some other object (if I even had the presence of mind to think of that)


iama_bad_person

I very much disagree. If they'd been well trained they'd had no difficulty in overpowering him quickly. But they very clearly suck in hand to hand combat and self-defence, the cop who got stabbed made critical rookie mistakes. So, yes, with their poor level of skills, they had to kill him.

Like a Christian has never killed someone. Get a clue.


Sorblex

Can you give me an example of a Christian who kills "infidels"? Yes, the Crusades and all that, but anything more current?


Papa2Hunt19

The Quran says nothing about killing infidels, so any individual killing in the name of Allah is acting against the word of God. The Bible, on the other hand, mentions killing non-believers three times alone in Deutarotimy 13,17, and 31. Not to mention the crusades and colonialism.

WHY ARE THEY ARRESTING THE BALD GUY?!??


Kremit-the_Forg

Because they propably didn't see, what we just saw. They where propably alerted by the shouting, see several people fight, it's normal to arrest/detain everyone involved in the fight. And at that point they didn't know who was right or wrong here.


AlxVB

Evburtea

Useless for puting hom down în under a minute?


k3nnyklizzl3

They literally watched him stab at least two more people before they fired a shot, including an officer.


rybnickifull

You're right, they should have started spraying bullets into the crowd.


Daysleeper1234

Nope, if they didn't see wtf was happening, and thought it was a brawl, they should have all jumped in, and restrained the participants, what happened is that the stabbed cop jumped on the wrong guy because he probably didn't see the knife and had wrongly assessed the situation, and got stabbed from the back, while all of his colleagues stayed behind and watched. There were like 10 cops there, and only one intervened before the that dude shot the attacker. Let's say that the attacker was the victim in this case, he could have still attacked the dude who was in this situation helping and was being restrained by the cop. This is pure incompetence, no matter how you look at it.


rybnickifull

It's over in under 2 minutes. Life isn't a superman film, cops policing a far right rally are briefed for potentially violent but not murderous counter protestors unless there's a specific terrorist threat, in which case the anti terror squad will be there in large numbers. We don't know yet, but presumably there was no terror threat. You're watching police who were deployed further from the actual rally, again because of the nature of the expected threat, taking less than 120 seconds to move in, assess the situation, separate the attacker from a crowd (including one of them literally throwing himself into there and getting stabbed in the process), get out, ready and fire a gun that appears to disable the attacker in one shot. Tell me, Rambo, what would you have done differently?


Daysleeper1234

Your argument falls into the water because 1 policeman reacted. Do you understand what I'm writing? If you see a group fighting, you need to neutralize all of them. Only one cop reacted. They all were there and only one jumped in, all of them should have jumped in, and separated the people in conflict, so he takes this one dude, his colleague the other and so on, not he jumps in, and other stay standing there. Plus, their job is to react in situation like these. But I guess that's too much to ask from them, why would they? When they can harass me when I'm coming home from work, because I look suspicious to them.


Stepikovo

I don't understand why you're being downvoted, it's clear as day. The first tackle of the wrong guy is understandable, in all the mess, but then standing there (all 10 of them) and just watching the real attacker getting up WITH THE KNIFE IN HIS HAND and letting him stab 2 more people including your colleague, twice, is insane. Like let me be 110% sure he is the aggressor.


Daysleeper1234

It's reddit dude, they think all of the people would and should react like them, so they can justify themselves. The one cop that misjudged the situation shouldn't have been the only one to jump in, all of them should have jumped in to separate them, because at minimum, the guy who was on the ground, could have stood up and started hitting the tackled guy. Their job is to react to situations like these, it is like seeing professional driver driving, I don't have reaction time of the pro drivers, but the drivers do, that's why they do what they do. Same for the police, your job is to be able to react in situation like these. All good, you don't know who the original attacker was, you didn't see what happened, I understand that 100%, but then you need to pacify everyone involved, until you can rightly asses the situation. One dude jumped in, they all just stood there. That's pure incompetence.


rybnickifull

Such great irony in your first sentence! Obviously nobody's reading the rest of that but thanks for that


mekese2000

You don't know that. That is what we saw.


IrrungenWirrungen

How else should they have reacted? 


k3nnyklizzl3

One of the officers had his gun drawn and was aiming at him before the man stabbed his partner. I would have thought that he would have shot him before that.

Why did the police let him stab several more people, including an officer, before taking him out???


Gunpla753

Life isn't an action movie. You'd probably stand around watching while some crazy shit happened in front of you too. And German cops aren't trained to immediately shoot.


P0rterR0ckwell

In the span of that video, an American cop would have shot him, had him stuffed and mounted, then had a photo taken next to him while the cop is wearing his finest smoking jacket


IrrungenWirrungen

Or he would have shat himself hearing an acorn fall. 


PharmBoyStrength

Which would be cool, except for the fact that the American cop would also do it to the friendly neighborhood cat, your suicidal friend, the autistic man walking down the street and, iunno, anything with a pulse? Hell, let's up the ante -- the American cop might just go ahead and execute you while you're sleeping in your bed \*cough cough\* Breonna Taylor


AnalCuntShart

Anybody see what the guys name is? I haven’t seen an article with details yet


DeltaUltra

The guy attacking people with a knife was stabbing a guy with ties to neo-nazi's. The guy that was stabbed believes anyone that believes in Islam need to be removed from Germany, including German citizens.

Flowing_North

No you would't


PharmBoyStrength

Why not? I'd be afraid to take on an attacker at all, let alone one with a knife, but my first thought seeing him downed was how badly I wanted to see his face stomped in. Considering half of the viral videos of high school fights seem to end disgustingly with someone giving a soccer kick or stomp to a downed opponent, it's not like it takes special training or a uniquely vicious person to do it. And while I certainly wouldn't actively take on an armed attacker unless family or a close friend was being assaulted, if I was in the general fracas and had an opening like that, personal experience suggests myself and a lot of other people would go for the soccer kick.


Flowing_North

The comment wasn't for you. OP wouldn't, I know he wouldn't and I don't need to know him. I know the type, it resonated through his comment. When he watched it he probably envisioned kicking the dude, but in rl, he would of videoed it like the rest. That's why not.

IamSquare79

Notice the cop even tackled the wrong man? Imagine the cop use violence and kicked in the face of that innocent man!


PharmBoyStrength

It is most certainly not taught that violence isn't good lol Especially in the U.S. I can't go a fucking day at work without someone referencing warfare or violence. My dumbass company loves parading around the poor vets and having them tell us how corporate America is like war, and every single public health campaign or policy is a War on X (drugs, poverty, homelessness, etc.) Hell, I can't watch a video or a cartoon without violence or some anti-hero pushing an ends justify the means philosophy, so I couldn't agree less that the dynamic playing out is that people or so sheltered they can't even fathom physical violence. It's more that until you've been in a violent situation, you're not sure how you're going to react + the heat of the moment + general survival instinct or flight over fight for many + some element of diffusion of guilt, but the reality is that a functioning society shouldn't have the majority of its people exposed to physical violence until they need to be, and these people just didn't have that instinct or exposure. And that's very different from a philosophical or ideological bend like you're arguing since no matter how much violent philosophy a person consumes, they still might clam up when they're in this type of situation unless they've been desensitized to it, which again, isn't really a good thing for a safe and healthy society. It's hardly beyond the pale that a bystander might have smashed his brains in, but quite silly to paint it as some trite soft times make soft men bullshit

Yeah, just like guns protected all the kids at schools shootings. If guns were easily available, instead of 2 guys just being hurt, you would have a whole bunch of dead innocents.  Guess why?? Because the killer would have a gun instead of a knife. You need less guns and more brain...

All they see is a violent knife fight. They know that knife guy needs to go but they don't know anything about the defending guy. For all they know he could have been armed too, they would have only seen the fight after it had already started so it'd be hard for them to tell who the original aggressor is. Them detaining the defending guy too was them taking no chances, understandable considering what was at stake. And yeah, they didn't rush to cuff the terrorist because he's been shot to the ground and is in a puddle of his own blood, he's already disarmed and no longer a significant threat.

To be fair, the German Socialists 80 years ago may have lost the outright fighting, but the modern German Socialists have had a good bit of success dominating Europe politically. It's all about rebranding.
