Do Not Resist Page #2

Synopsis: An urgent and powerful exploration of the rapid militarization of the police in the United States. Starting on the streets of Ferguson, Missouri, as the community grapples with the death of Michael Brown, DO NOT RESIST - the directorial debut of Detropia cinematographer Craig Atkinson - offers a stunning look at the current state of policing in America and a glimpse into the future. The Tribeca Film Festival winner for Best Documentary puts viewers in the center of the action - from a ride-along with a South Carolina SWAT team and inside a police training seminar that teaches the importance of "righteous violence" to the floor of a congressional hearing on the proliferation of military equipment in small-town police departments - before exploring where controversial new technologies including predictive policing algorithms could lead the field next.

"The best sex

I've had in months."

Both partners are very invested

in some very intense sex.

There's not a whole lot of

perks that come with this job.

You find one, relax and enjoy it.

Thank you, for taking and keeping...

Anybody here from prison,

probation, jail?

'Cause I honor you,

I publicly honor you.

You looked in the eyes

of scary people every day,

and you know the world's a better place

'cause they're behind bars, yes?

So you do this...

On your way home that night, park

your vehicle in the overpass

for just a minute.

Step out of your vehicle

for just a minute.

Look out on your city.

Look at your citizens

going about their lives,

and know deep in your gut

that today,

at the risk of your life,

you made their world a better place,

whether they know it or not.

Then walk up that bridge rail,

put your hands on that rail.

Look out on your city,

and let your cape blow in the wind.

Thanks, guys. Thank you.

Go, go, go!

Easy!

You got it, man.

Ya'll gotta go!

Easy run,

boys, let's go! Breathe!

Let's go! Get it done!

We all get amped up, going on,

if we do a regular warrant,

we all get the feel,

and the adrenalin going,

but you don't get the butterflies

you do on the start line

for any of these events.

It's just different.

Get in, let's go! Get in,

let's go, let's go, let's go!

Get inside, then you'll be good!

I remember the first search warrant,

you're riding on the outside

of these armored vehicles.

I remember the first time I did it,

I'm just trying not to smile,

like it was just so much fun,

I thought it was so cool.

And so now every time we get

new guys, we call them pups,

we call them "SWAT pups,"

and I'm always watching them.

The first time they

go on a search warrant,

they're on the outside of the vehicles,

I always look for them

and they're always just

smiling ear to ear.

They just feel like they're

on the top of the world.

Get in there! Get in there!

Good job, guys.

Obviously, we

don't have it as bad over here

as they do in Iraq or Afghanistan

but we come across threats too that

military training's gonna help.

All the things we have the M4 rifles

and the armored trucks we have,

we have 'cause something in the States

has happened that has

warranted that for us.

This is a diversionary device.

One, two, three!

For the land of the free

And the home of the

Brave

Please help me welcome

the director of the Federal

Bureau of Investigation,

Director Comey, a real friend

of law enforcement.

While our officers are facing an

increasingly dangerous environment,

we are seeing a growing debate about

so-called "warrior cops,"

a term that I've heard and the
