        How is law enforcement supposed to know the mental state of people they encounter? At times, they literally only have seconds to make life altering decisions.

        They knew. From article--did you bother to read it? "The police had been called to the apartment by a building security guard because Ms. Danner a paranoid schizophrenic with a history of hospitalizations, had been ranting in a hallway and tearing posters off the wall."

        any 66 year old swinging a wood bat at you is clearly suffering from something. Ive had a teenager swing a metal bat at me when i was younger and we are both still alive. not as scary as you think. even if i had had a gun on me i still would have fought my way out of it.

        Yeah, sure that bat in the hands of a woman was sooo deadly to the...how many armed male officers was it who showed up? 🙄 But they saved themselves from bruises & *maybe* a broken bone or 2, while this poor woman in crisis paid with her life. SMDH.

        Replying to @pinky_or_brain @Vitale_IVplay and

        "It was the third time in two years the police had been called in to help emergency medical technicians take Ms. Danner to a hospital. The previous two times the police had had to break down her door to extricate her." They knew from the start that she was an EDP, JFC!

        We also JUST watched cops peacefully bring in the murderer who just killed 17 children in Florida with an automatic weapon. So saying, "How are the cops supposed to know she's mentally ill?" is the typical, everyday- racist complacent reply when it comes to blk/brown folks lives

        giving the wrong people firearms and a badge to use it is a mistake i would have thought the US would have learned from by now.

        Now she 66 with a bat. What could she have possibly done to make you kill her. You could have tasered her.
