The man needs help and I hope he gets it. The system, however, is set up to not treat someone who has the wherewithal to refuse it and to shun those who are unable to pay.

It is a massively complex problem with no easy answers. In his case, he has enough money and people to shelter him from his actions that he may never get real help. And someday, he will hurt someone, and/or himself, very badly.

That actually sounds like a police attempt at de-escalation.

"See, There's this guy we're trying to arrest who's refusing to come out of his home. He hasn't technically threatened anybody but we can confirm there are guns inside."

"But hey, it's not a standoff" 😕

They don’t even know if he’s in the house dude and it’s for a misdemeanor

Does the average person shut themselves in a house for a misdemeanor?

It's not so much the details of the situation as it is that Brown is unstable.

We all know Brown is unstable but this situation isn’t anything remotely crazier than other stuff he’s been doing the last several years. Reporters are making it sound like they’ve got guns pointed at each other and Brown is about to go out suicide by cop which is ridiculous

Perhaps.

But the presence of mental illness is how stories that start off with "officer so and so was there to serve a simple warrant" end with "and the suspect was pronounced dead on the scene".

Police in a case like this are wise to show restraint and be extremely careful with their words.

Yes, he should get help ... after he serves time if he's convicted of domestic battery.

EDIT:

Nevermind.

A little more than that...

Threatening to shoot someone, especially as part of a domestic dispute, is a bit more than just throwing a shoe.

      Jonathan Brooks health update…

      By WarPanthers89 · Posted

      I know it was posted in another thread but it is buried at this point and figured it was good to see how he’s doing. Also, checkout these videos and tell me you are not excited to see this kid run behind our massive O line.. ARTICLE: Panthers 2nd-round pick Jonathon Brooks expects to be healthy for training camp. Even coming off an ACL tear, Jonathon Brooks was still the first running back taken in the 2024 NFL draft. And soon enough, that injury may not be a factor.   After a little movement in the second round, the Carolina Panthers settled in on the 46th overall slot used it to select Brooks. When speaking to reporters for the first time since the card was turned in, the 20-year-old rusher confirmed the belief that he should be ready to go by the start of training camp. “Honestly, as far as rehab goes, it’s good,” Brooks said. “I’m out there, I’m running, I’m about to start cutting. So I’m progressing well. I’m right on track on where I need to be. For me to get back to camp, it’s also just a blessing. I feel like this injury’s a blessing from God just being that it gives me a chance to focus on a lot of other things. As bad as it is, it’s the best-case scenario. I just only tore my ACL and it was a complete tear. It’s great, I can’t wait to get back out there and just can’t wait to keep playing football.” Brooks played some spectacular football before the tear—having rushed for 1,139 yards and 10 touchdowns over just 11 games. His efforts, while cut short, still earned him a second-team All-Big 12 selection for the 2023 season. The Panthers, who are sticking around in Charlotte this summer, will begin training camp in late July. -pantherswire.usatoday.com

      How do you figure he will redshirt for a year? All indications are he will be ready for training camp.

      Are Brooks and Legette Day 1 Starters?

      By TD alt · Posted

      Trading Thielen, huh? I could go for that. I'd trade him for a fourth (which turns into Malik Washington or Javon Baker) in a heartbeat.
