We The People #4 - Police Deaths
Episode 4
Friday, 23 April, 2021
Talking about the various shooting and in custody deaths by the police over the years and analyzing excessive force versus personal responsibility. Below is an excerpt from an article about the loss of fine motor skills which I touch on in the podcast During a stress event, the SNS is activated and adrenaline, chemicals and hormones are dumped from the adrenal glands and immediately sent out to the areas of the body needed to primarily support the survival effort. Consequently, the heart rate increases to 115 beats per minute (BPM) and this is the point where most people lose fine motor skills, experience decreased manual dexterity, are unable to multi-task and lose eye-hand coordination. At 145 BPM, most people lose complex motor skills, meaning those manual dexterity skills necessary to do several things at once or in unison. At 175 BPM, the pupils dilate and flatten and visual narrowing occurs – or what is referred to as tunnel vision – and since the visual system is the primary sensory system for the brain it becomes increasingly difficult to focus and track objects and targets.
