      The video is in the article. The response was “you’re fine” and a pat on the back. Can’t make that shit up.

      Good advice for a choking person. Performing the abdominal thrust on someone who could talk has the potential to get the obstruction stuck further and completely blocking their airway.

      Not good advice for someone possibly panicking that you are actively smothering.

        It’s almost like the militarized police force is tortured in a controlled setting as part of their training, so they torture citizens… who aren’t trained for torture and are not in a controlled setting.
