Antonio Brown...

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.
