3. Well here’s the difference between cops at the ambulance and mental care workers at the ambulance when someone may get scared or freak out.

   The cops – Subdue and Force, also charge with assault – so now they’ve committed a crime and can be handcuffed and forced or shot.

   The Mental Health guys – First, less of a chance of freak out because the worker has built a repore and the patient knows he has a choice. That’s what the police forget – it’s a wellness “check” not a wellness pick me up and handcuff me to a stretcher!
   I watched a cop drag a young lady by her hair! from her apartment, down the hallway, through the entryway while she screamed and cried and then out to her car on a SUICIDE WELLNESS CHECK!!! Her mother had talked to her on the phone and then couldn’t get her to pick up again. She was in a different city so called for the quickest help she could. Does it matter that she was a young First Nations Woman? It shouldn’t have.

   If your child was at risk of taking their own life for any reason, and you couldn’t get there, can you imagine them being treated like that?

5. Great idea. Key to success of 31 year long program is been "responders remaining HUMBLE", which is OPPOSITE of erhardt chips are trained to be, that is to overpower in every conflict.

6. Sounds great. Now all you need is to find high quality people willing to go into very dangerous situations without being armed day after day, multiple times per day. The reality is drug use is very high in the US. Percentage of highly armed people is huge.

   First step should be education, treatment. That's going to take a really long time and it very expensive. The reason we have a policing issue is because heavily armed small teams using force is the cheapest way to deal with problems. Americans always opt for cheap.

8. Thank you NYC. i hope this has overwhelming results.

9. Good idea to try out–but you really need to get a better slogan.

10. How sad to know someone is killed while they had a mental situation.

11. I pray every persons who are actively dedicated to WORKING TOGETHER for the betterment of our communities, success and Godspeed resolutions throughout these tough situations 💜

12. Police should have never responded to those calls to begin with

13. So if u have a person, with a knife, well am praying 🙏

14. The Trump cultists are conditioned by family tradition, racist ideology, and religious fundamentalism to believe in Authority and their right to superior status when they have done nothing to earn that status. Being born white or born male doesn't give you any right to mistreat others. I suspect a lot of the problem is caused by poor parenting, with a lot of physical violence. People who go through that scene often have some serious PTSD to deal with and are to be pitied rather than blamed. They suffer from irrational fear, over-reliance on authority, and inability to think for themselves. They need mental health programs to help them accept reality.

15. Wow that sounds like a great idea 💡

16. And who decides what is a mental health called and what is one that needs the police and what happens when that person misses judges that situation I think a lot of mental health workers are going to get injured

17. Was that background music designed to heighten mental illness. It was beyond annoying.

18. On covid; US covid infected in America, 6 thousand, 344 thousand, 700. joe biden

    On US covid deaths; One thousand, one hundred eighty nine thousand 506. joe biden

19. Ok. Can we get news?? News?? This isn’t new . This been around for decades, move on. Lol I think ya running out of things to report. Lol

20. Yep, lets defund the police as biden and harris has promised, we need them to keep their promises. Defund police , open border and amnesty for all !!!!! The also promised higher taxes to give some of that to blacks to pay them for reparations. It will be really interesting when the police are defunded, criminals are released , illegals are freed and more flood in , just wait till someone kills your loved one and a social worker shows up instead of a cop. Should be great.

21. I think this is amazing and will save lives

22. This is a good thing that has been needed a while, see how it goes, then other Municipalities could consider enacting such a Program!

23. This is progress

24. I would send both medical experts and Police.

25. Why play irrelevent annoying intrusive music whilst giving important information? It makes it much harder to focus on the information. It's silly.

26. BTW this is what defund the police actually means … Taking money from hiring more police officers and prison workers and putting it towards mental and community services.

27. What an idea. Send people who are actually trained to take care of the problem they are there to solve!… Sending police to deal with mental health and domestic issues is like sending the fire dept when your car won't start

28. Please send the mental health team to the White House. There is a loser there who thinks he is a winner.

29. Countries with the top 5 strictest lockdowns in spring… 3 are having the worst outbreaks again. LOCKDOWNS don't work
