When are you moving there?

I have an idea. Let me punch you in the fucking face and then you just call a social worker to tell them how it made you feel

Kill yourself. Or move to Europe, either one works.

The point of course is it is cheaper. It helps people. It helps the cops. Many rape victims say the second worse thing that happened to them was dealing with the cops after the rape. That is why so many rapes go unrecorded. That is an example of work cops fail in. So are domestic disturbances, homeless problems and the mentally ill.

Hurr Durr Durr...it's cheaper, Hurr Durr Durr...except it's not. That social worker doesn't do anything yet gets paid...money that would to to a cop who can actually help in court.

I get that part.

Problem is, these kind of ‘low intensity’ [for lack of a better word] interactions with cops don’t contribute much to bad outcome statistics. What were the social workers going to do with Michael Brown?

Someone committing a crime isn’t going to pay attention to a social worker lol. In fact, an unarmed social worker is liable to get hurt if they confront the criminal.

No one denies there’s a role social workers can play in certain instances—it’s just that those types of instances aren’t the problem.

How could have social workers changed the outcome in the Floyd case?

Unfortunately, it won't be long before one is hurt...or killed. Such a ridiculous move.... Whose idea was that?
