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?
I can't believe some place is actually dumb enough to try this ridiculous idea. I bet the criminals there are giddy. They might need to open up some more morgues because these unarmed civilians are going to be dead meat in no time.
