Hi, fellow corrections officers, how we can control riots and hostages in a best way?

Mass gunfire has worked every time it was tried.

Hi, fellow corrections officers, how we can control riots and hostages in a best way?

Not having the option of shooting them as my enthusiastic friend above has suggested, here in the Uk we train Prison Officers as (Hostage) Negotiators....we are Officer grades and deal with Hostage situations aswell as 'Rooftops', 'Sit Downs', and any form of Concerted Indiscipline.

With full scale riots I think it's probably better to....lets see now....oh yes Run Seriously all our Prisons have a unit of Officers specially trained for riots etc and prisons nearby respond to a call out from the affected prison and then we go in and.......Win

Two words : OPEN FIRE

LOL, ummmm, I'll just choose to not comment on this one cause I'll probably say something I shouldn't.

LOCK DOWN!!!!!!
O/F's can't riot if they are locked down, LMAO!

I agree with lock 'em down before they can. But if not, then the 12 gauges and the 37 mm work real nice to get people's attention.

Form a JET team or CERT team. Jail Entry Team is usually made up of certified police officer because they have a little bit more freedom in tactics.
Cell Entry/Rescue Team is usually made up of C/O's with special training. Or just dont do anything to start a riot RESPECT is a good start!!! It takes a while to earn it but every newby we get that the first thing they get told or do as i say not as i do bc most of the FTO's in the facility has delt with the same inmates over and over (revolving door at my facility)lmao. Newby 2 nites ago got hit in the mouth bc he told a inmate to shut the f up bc he heard another seasoned co use those words and thought he could. it all falls back on RESPECT....
