I think that some social workers will refuse to go into certain neighborhoods even if they were armed. And, how many female social workers are going to respond to a 911 call at night in a strange neighborhood. Who thinks this is a good idea?

Actually it’s a brilliant idea. Stupid practice but brilliant idea. “See what we’ve done for the community “. We’ve replaced those horrible cops with social workers. Don’t forget to vote for me “. Next year. “How many situations have the social workers responded to? Uh, none yet. We didn’t get any of those certain 911 calls that would require their appearance “. Typical political BS speak.
