Saw the video.My long years working in a big city ER gives me at least some knowledge in such matters.My first thought was β€œmore proof that the plan to shut down two-thirds of the nation's psychiatric beds was a very bad idea.

Wait, he died of self-inflected blunt force trauma. It’s possible but you are going to need do a little more documentation on that one.

Didn't look at the OP, did you? Justify what happened. And with what turns out to be total immunity from prosecution, they won't even get their badge and LEO certification pulled.

Known too many thugs in blue. And the sad part is the Thin Blue Line syndrome tends to protect the thugs, even when good LEOs won't trust them.

Here in the Portland area, the PPD chased out all the good cops. They took early retirement, or moved to suburban PDs in the Portland/Vancouver area. They would be the first to admit that it's easy to get an "Us vs Them" attitude, particularly when the city government is fishing for votes from the cartels and street gangs.

The Portland PD is 300 short of minimal staffing. Most neighborhoods don't even get a daily drive thru. Last year, the Urban Gang Unit consisted of one man at a desk.

Last week, a new DA won the primary, on a rebuild the PD platform, sh!tcanning Dan Schmitt, who bragged that he was Antifa. Now, who are those new recruits going to be? Psycho, badge heavy dregs, in black ninja pants, with sap gloves, itching to get their gun off.

Go ahead. Deny it.

Thank you very much for this explanation. I had no clue about the background of the changed regulations with regard to institutionalization of patients with mental issues.

Neither did I know about what happened to Rosie Kennedy πŸ™ May this poor woman rest in peace with the angels πŸ˜‡
