Re: OP

We have had people on this com tell a delusional person in the US that yes, they should definitely get law enforcement involved to help them deal with their delusion. That is an excellent way to get a delusional person injured or worse by a cop.

Re: OP

That's bad advice, but it could easily have come from ignorance. The advice giver might not be from the US.

NAYRT
I don't remember that thread at all so I'm missing all the other context, but yeah, as a non US citizen I can confirm that in some countries calling the authorities (such as police officers or similar) when you have delusions or are at risk of suicide is a good advice that takes the safety of the person in consideration.

Not everyone lives in a social context where the police can very easily become your enemy and violent without any justification.
It's very unfortunate that the USA (and many other countries as well. Probably the vast majority in the world) has so many problems with law enforcers.

Unfortunately, that’s not the case in the US, which is where this person stated they lived. And also unfortunately, it is so very much not the case in the US that you'd have to be living under a rock not to realize it because it draws international attention on the monthly.

Some people around here seem to recommend that other people involve the police in their problems just for fun. The most harmlessly ridiculous one that comes to mind was when a bunch of people told someone she should call the cops next time someone she was tailgating brake-checked her. But we’ve also got some regular Karens on here as well as the people trying to get mentally ill people shot by the cops.

You are vastly over-estimating how much international folks are cued in on the intricacies of our domestic issues. And really, why should they be? "Living under a rock", are you serious? I live abroad and nowadays the locals might be aware that black people are targeted by cops, but they don't know anything about the danger they pose to the mentally ill. Hell, people are shocked when you tell them that police in America regularly shoot dogs, like they can't even wrap their heads around how fucked that is.

Re: OP

I have also lived outside of the US. The US is the rest of the world's Florida. International news loves to point out that, whatever our local issues may be, at least the cops didn't pound some autistic kid's head into the ground 5 or 6 times because he clicked a pen at them. If that's not the case in the specific rock you're living under abroad, then good for you, but most of the Americas, Europe and Asia have enough awareness of how fucked up the cops are in America to know that egging on a delusional person to include our heavily armed police in their delusions is bad.
