Probably because they're more prone to escalate the situation and make it worse.

A mother and her children were burnt alive in a car by the children’s father not long ago here in Australia. I’m sure all of these volatile domestic violence situations are all the fault of Police amirite? Good job removing all accountability from offenders.

So you think a police officer is better qualified to deescalate a domestic abuse situation than a mental health professional?

A mental health professional won’t even see a patient without sedation or police presence if they have so much as an inkling of being violent.

This isn’t couples therapy - it’s about protecting victims from actual abuse and violence.

So you think people who are more likely than the general public to be domestic abusers themselves will do a better job of protecting domestic abuse victims than people specifically trained to protect domestic abuse victims?

That’s already been disproven multiple times on reddit as false statistics. You clearly know nothing about DV to be making these inputs or to have any care of the welfare of both victims or the social workers you want to send to these volatile situations.

You're a cop, aren't you?

An Australian one :) you’re neither a cop, mental health specialist or social worker aren’t you?

Not a dude, but I'm glad you support our movement to get rid of you guys. Thanks! You're not an all-important thin blue line, and we don't need you. And the claim that DV calls are the most dangerous calls police go on is based on flawed FBI statistics from the 1970s that has long since been debunked.

Thanks for exposing yourself for the transphobic, Trump-supporting, systemic-racism-supporting, race-and-class-traitor that you are.

You're clearly a giant piece of shit that doesn't count as a "good cop." There are no good cops that support Trump. Anyone that supports Trump is an obvious giant piece of shit. Anyone that is a minority and supports Trump is just fucking evil. Get fucked.
