Do you think that requiring cops to work alongside mental health workers and social workers would help? What about requiring more training in how to deescalate situations without using force?

That's absolutely amazing. I know that having a social worker take my call when I called about domestic violence likely would have really changed the outcome. Instead I was told to call back when the death threats were in writing.

"how to not get shot by the cops" sounds an awful lot like "how to dress so you don't get raped".

Victim blaming at its worst.

I actually just read something about how defunding the police would work. It's brilliant. Absolutely brilliant.

I didn't expect such good advice, this is fantastic. You're hilarious.
