Man, what a quandary. Guess we just continue incarcerating the mentally unwell and arming the facists. Sounds like there’s no better option. Glad that’s sorted.

Statistics show that this would cost less money than engaging the unwell with police, but then how would we justify huge police budgets?

we could, I dunno, quantify which results in better outcomes over time: a jacked up roided police force responding to mental health problems by criminalizing the suffering, or, I guess, maybe… provide some mental health services?
seems fraught with potential.
