Many a dispute between neighbors has turned into violence and even shooting. The first thing the responding social worker will want is police backup.
I was talking with a gentleman at the barbershop recently. His son is a cop. He said they are more concerned about DV calls (domestic violence) than almost any other as there is often a LOT of rage and they come out shooting.
What social worker will get out of bed at 2 AM to go solve a DV incident??
