Another great discussion, this time about solutions to the problem of violent police interactions.

It's absurd how much money we spend on police and not on other ways to enforce the laws that would be CHEAPER, too!

Cops don't want to enforce traffic laws. They don't want to be mental health professionals. They don't want to punish people for being poor. Most want to help people. But 911 only has one resource for non medical issues: cops.
