I sure hope this training places a lot of emphasis on psychiatric assessment.  What did you think of teaming psychiatrists up with police on beat?  I would think there should be room for at least one of these per precinct/small town and more in big cities. Perhaps a few key questions from a 9/11 dispatcher could trigger the dispatch of such a team.

I don’t know about roaming psych evaluations for cops, but I do think every patrol or call-out should have a social worker going along with the cops.
