Two Philadelphia Police officers killed Walter Wallace, a mentally ill Black man, in West Philly today. He had a knife, but was not charging the offices. His mother begged them not to shoot him. If only the police were as interested in de-escalation as his poor mother.

I'm a mental health professional. I've restrained grown men with sharp objects without being stabbed. It's possible. The police could too if they wanted to. They don't. This is disgusting.
