What a gaggle of absolute chit bag humans. Another bunch of below C average students who don’t have any skills outside of being thugs.

Are you blaming the hospital or the cops .?

Does this woman have any family, or now that she's dead they'll show up to get money from the hospital.

That's what happens when a certain species of democraps cry wolf ALL the time. Gets to the point the cops don't take them seriously.

What do you expect when cops are reviled and defunded and shot to death? You're not going to get the human cream of the crop.

This is a problem of your own making. Cities that treat their police with respect don't have these problems because they can attract a better class of officer.

Hey Pookie?

Knoxville, TN police department wasn’t “defunded”.

The cops were called to get her out. They probably could have handled it better. But why did the hospital refuse treatment? Did she have insurance? Even if she didn't, why did they just kick her out when she was so obviously in distress? I thought the ACA was going to take care of these kinds of problems. Obviously that safety net has quite a few holes.

The hospital didn’t refuse treatment. Rather, they cleared her and sent her on her way.

Turns out, hospitals don’t like treating homeless people.

The thing is, in my experience - the overwhelming majority of medical and law enforcement persons I’ve known are outstanding professionals.
I wish I had the time to recount how many times they've gone above and beyond to help me and my family.

But as in every profession - there are ALWAYS *******s who make it look bad for everyone. I'm sure no one would want to be judged by the worst of any group you're connected to - by religion, profession, geography, anything. I wince when I hear people ridicule priests and Scoutmasters as if every damned one of them are pedophiles, when in my research, they're no more likely to violate children than any other group AND they have strict rules to protect children that they meticulously follow. Breaking them will likely get you booted even without any incident at all.

Moreover, in the case of Scouting, almost all cases being brought to light are very old - long before such rules were in force.

I know scores of volunteers whose dedication goes beyond anything I have ever tried to do.

I once lived within a block of one of the "worst high schools in America" as mentioned on the national news. And I had two friends working there. They told me out of a student body numbering around 1200, maybe 40-50 were violent thugs. Both of them had witness and in one case, had to break up a stabbing. But what that means is, more than 1100 of those kids were good kids who would never hurt anyone.

My point is, that it's easy to portray a group of persons as the same as the worst of the bunch - and perhaps we all feel that a profession or school or organization or what have you should police its own so that it doesn't happen. I know I wouldn't want to be judged by the worst members of my extended FAMILY and there's nothing I can do about that.

I'm also thinking there's more to this story than I'm seeing. I know what we see - but I'm suspicious. I've been in ER's where half the beds are occupied by drunks and homeless who really aren't that sick. Last time I was in an ER, I had to give a urine sample and a drunk was pounding on the door (which kind of made it hard to pee) because he wanted to sleep in there. (I was there in the middle of the night, so there wasn't much staff).

The wife has been to the ER twice in the past month with the kid, now they are filled with non English Speaking Hispanics ... guess the country of origin [ and this is Children's ]

Yea, sure. “Good cops”.

The so-called good cops never step in and diffuse these situations. Ergo, the Thin Blue Line.

There are no good cops.

None.
