Why on Earth would the police be considered the appropriate service to deal with this situation? There is no overlap between paramilitary law enforcement and social services.
This is where calls for defunding the police come in. Take some of the money spent on using physical force on those whose thoughts do not conform to social norms and use it on a more appropriate agency. We no longer regularly physically restrain and torture the mentally ill in treatment settings. Why do we insist on funding other institutions to do so?
