What I’ve been hearing locally is that the 9-11 operator will decide who to send. And if the caller forgets to tell the operator that the raging man has a gun....I say no more.
Well I know if I were a psychologist and they called me to go take care of a gunfight I’d let them know that I was on a vacation day.
Lunatics/Asylum.
And this is not the bee? Yes I checked...I had to...it’s really NOT the babylon bee...
All I can do is shake my head...insanity rules...
The videos should be very entertaining.
I suspect the 911 callers will only report the crime. The police will respond first and then will have to call in the mental health specialists.
Anyone who would go on a 911 call in Chicago in place of a cop is deficient in mental health.
I hope they issue them body armor when they are standing in the middle of a gun fight between rival gangs and urging calm
Sending in the mental health workers in body armor and a glock-19.
I hope they show up with butched up blue or green hair to fully try out their professional beliefs on the angry folk. Might be a gender transitional issue at play is all. Gang members are misunderstood saints that need hugs.
This will, of course, get people killed. The Marxists will then, of course, blame the deaths on law-abiding citizens having guns. This is all very predictable.
The see no evil, hear no evil approach to crime. Send less police, there will be less resisting of arrest and less jailing of people.
So, helping criminals at the expense of the safety of the populace. I’m sorry Chicago but I’m afraid this is going to make law abiding citizens less safe.
ROTHFLMFAO!!!!
Classic liberal insanity displayed at its very finest.
Their insanity will eventually get us and a lot of other people killed.
They belong in an insane asylum, not government.
Buy popcorn futures.
I’m not sure how mentally healthy these supposed mental health professionals are, going into seriously dangerous situations unarmed. Basically, they are cannon fodder for liberals.
Their supervisors can go home at night knowing that they have Done Some Good.
I don’t know if sending a “Mental Health Professional” INSTEAD OF the police is a good idea, but I do believe that maybe one of a pair of responding officers should have a beanbag shotgun to try first instead of hosing down an obviously crazy person with 9mm.
I can see the headlines now..Hostages...formally known as mental health professionals...
Their first intervention will be on the fifth floor of City Hall.
A lunatic has taken control of the office, claiming to be Mayor of Chicago.
Well, this type of response always works on TV. Note that the investigators of the behavior unit on Criminal Minds always lower or drop their guns to reason with the wild eyed psychopath who is holding a weapon to the victim’s throat. Clear reasoning with a bit of psycho babble thrown in doesn’t fail to affect the serial killer, who then drops his weapon and collapses in tears of regret.
CBS know this works so it must be true.
Ironically, I’ll wager that there are more than enough proggy lib mental health social workers who won’t hesitate to take on this new challenge! They’ll arrive on scene, identify themselves and, eventually, one perp will become angry and indignant, lashing out “Oh, so now y’all think I’m crazy or some sh!t??! Well F*** YOU!!” - - BLAM! BLAM! BLAM! BLAM! BLAM!
This will be a great job - Chicago Government wages [$100,000+] Illinois State Benefits - big pensions - plus no one who works for the State or City ever gets fired.
So the Social Workers will hide, refuse to respond due to safety reasons and still be able to keep their salary and benefits.
