So he stole from the Trump campaign to pay Manning's buyout? I'm good with that.

Not all heroes wear a shirt.

its posts like this that keep me coming back to read this board. How do you know that? Why do you know that?
My concern is not for that dude specifically, my concern is that police handle mental health crises very poorly. This guy luckily only ended up with a some scrapes and bruises, but these situations too often end up very poorly. That fact that you think someone threatening suicide will have the clarity of mind to respond to police instructions shouted from 20 feet away with a gun pointed at them within seconds clarifies for me that you do not understand how someone with any anxiety disorder or depression (etc.) thinks and operates, especially during a crisis.
He's not the only one "stealing" from those campaign coffers. Just the only one caught so far.
Do you think that sending in a social worker is the best way to handle a drunk, potentially unstable, violent, and possibly armed 6’6 man?
I think someone who specializes in dealing with people who are in a mental health crisis and aren’t armed are probably the best ones to handle that situation.

Yeah. Social workers and mental health experts deal with large unstable men all the time.
No shit. But they do it in a controlled environment they know is safe. Which this was not.
If Brad had a gun and shot a social worker you would blame the police for not controlling the situation.
This. Social workers should be immediately involved after the person is in a controlled environment. What social worker is going to sign up to respond, unarmed, and apparently without police presence (?), to an unhinged, drunk guy with a weapons cache who is beating his wife and threatening suicide?
