19. Exactly...it is perceived as hard by the cops though because

they learn zip about human behavior. And it CAN take some doing when the individual is very agitated...takes time to allow "calming" once the "threat" is removed -- but in the presence of most cops that can't happen because THEY perceive the distressed person as a threat, and thus have their counter-threat in place just in case.
