My mother works at a residential care facility full of mentally ill people. I've helped her do the training for about 10 years now. I'm not as qualified as skinned but f*** would I never want to actually have to use that stuff. You're basically required to put your attackers Health above your own and take a beating in the process. Your restraints can't even come close to hurting the other person.

If there is one person on this entire forum more qualified to discuss restraining mentally ill people than skinned, I have no idea who it could possibly be.

Autism is not mental illness.

What's that? People who are there to help you have been trained to... help you? Perish the thought.

Did you get a hold of Alex?

Cops shouldn't be asked to deal with people with mental illness. Most aren't trained for it. Doubt anyone is going to defend the cop here, just a shitty situation where the response is obviously not appropriate.

Let me guess, another tally to apply to the larger cop population so people are taught to hate cops at a time when the complete opposite is needed? Good job Skinned.
