Prizewriter Professional Poster Registered: 10/23/05 Posts: 2177	http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-10822923 Pretty brave in the circumstances. Proof if proof were needed that de-escalation skills can be an effective way to prevent violence. _________________________ "Let your food be your medicine, and your medicine be your food" Hippocrates.

Kathryn Member Registered: 09/24/09 Posts: 199 Loc: Washington, DC	I saw the video and thought that she handled him very well. Unfortunately, two hours later he robbed a shoe store and is now in police custody. Kathryn _________________________ Be nice, until it's time to not be nice.
