  • A Texas family says they called the police asking for a mental health resource officer to visit the home, but their attorney says an officer who is not “capable of dealing with a mental health crisis” was sent. The Killeen police chief promised a thorough investigation and the officer involved is now on administrative leave.

      Let's see the bodycam of the previous incident. I have a feeling the guy was NOWHEREnear as aggressive as in this video.
      So let's ask the real question. Did this rather large, angry, and aggressive man approach another human being aggressively?
      Yes.

      Yes.
      Could that fact be indicative of the danger to the officer?

Many mental health facilities died out in the 70-80s due to lack of state and federal funding; that money now goes to police depts. Even police who may have good intentions are not trained in mental health. Police depts also need to do more psychological screening so that they weed out applicants who see every non-white person as some kind of target to shoot.

      They didn't call for a street cop, they called for a mental health officer. This is done all the time when a family is having a problem with a loved one and needs them hospitalized. In Florida, it's called "Baker Acted" (from the law "The Baker Act") when a doctor/mental health professional, judge, or cop commits a person to a mental health treatment center (for up to 3 days). Of course, if the family member is freaking out in your home, the only option of the 3 is to call the cops. I've known a couple of people who've gotten Baker Acted by their family. They were both upper-middle-class white women so zero chance of them getting shot. #BewareTheBlondeTrophyWife

      He's 6 feet under because he didn't do as he was asked. And because the police officer was trigger happy. The blame goes both ways. He had mental issues that might be due to past drug taking in his more youthful days. People usually don't suddenly develop mental issues - they usually do something to themselves to get into that situation.

    For those who keep asking why a cop was even sent in the first place, the protocol in many parts of the country is to automatically dispatch police officers to anyone who reports a 9-11 emergency, regardless of the nature of said emergency. All the more reason to change policing in this country so that officers only go where they're absolutely needed; so that mental health emergencies are instead handled by mental health professionals to ensure not only that people receive the assistance they actually need, but to stop these atrocities from continuously taking place. Anything else is completely inhumane, and makes for a nation that's the greatest in name only, not in substance.
