I’m a Marine Corp veteran, trained by LEOs when I served in US embassies on how to handle unruly individuals or protestors.

1) If you are the guys with guns, you are the ones responsible for the situation. Doubly so if you outnumber the person you’re engaging.

2) You do not need to use force except to control the situation in order to deescalate it. Minimal force required.

3) You are NOT here to look for excuses to use more force. Even if the person gives you an excuse which “justifies” using force, that doesn’t mean using force is de facto the right move.

4) “Let the other person retreat” often resolves the situation just fine! Don’t surround people, back them up against a wall, etc. Your job is to control the situation. “I put myself stupidly in danger” is not an excuse to escalate “because I’m in danger.”

5) People will feed off of your energy. If you come rolling up like a fascist thug ready to break skulls, people will meet you at that level. If you show up calm, professional, and having a friendly chat, often that brings the temperature down.

Everything I see from ICE agents is they are relishing violence and exercising power, needlessly escalating situations, looking for opportunities to shoot their weapons and beat the shit out of people.

@simondepasquale @bradhowelll Great one-take!

Great opening day with the bro! Met up with some buddies on the water, caught plenty of fish, and capped it of with a tasty fish dinner!

Got out with the boys for a socially distanced fishing trip last weekend, and the pike were on fire! Even cooler is that someone caught one of the same fish the very next day!

Got in one last ski for the season! A little birdie told me that spring is just around the corner! 😊

My lab is hoping to hire a MSc student for May 2021. The project involves plenty of lake trout angling and sampling in some of North America's best fishing sites. Details here: https://t.co/BTg3Zb82fe

An homage to the common carp control project spearheaded by @ducanada. Delta Marsh, a world-class wetland devastated by these fish, is making a comeback through the efforts of Ducks Unlimited's "Restoring the Tradition" project. Learn: https://t.co/IkRHGABXHG

Thought it'd be fun to create a custom lab coat. 👍👍

Big 'ol brook trout in spawning colours. One of Manitoba's most beautiful native fish. Drawn with permanent marker and alcohol.

@Absynthiol Close! But wrong genus. Look at the white ribs on the paired fins...

Couple #SundayFishSketch creations for today:

First is an in-progress #labcoat creation of one of my favourite species. Anyone know what it is?

Second is the #Greenback #Walleye.

@CskiChris @moxostoma @DFO_MPO @LampreyControl Those are awesome!
Dang, I thought I was so clever with the "Lampreybusters" thing. Those electrofishing units definitely look like they're ready to take on the paranormal! 😉

[Caleb Wong @DugongWong]

I was alerted to the #SundayFishSketch trend. I like it!

Old drawing from a couple seasons ago when I worked at the Sea Lamprey Control Centre in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. Thought the theme was fitting. Who ya gonna call?
