Unarmed civilians to replace San Francisco police on some 911 calls amid cop shortage

The San Francisco Police Officers Association signed a plan with the city earlier this month that allows unarmed civilian service providers to handle 17 types of calls to the San Francisco Police Department (SFPD).

The police union agreed to the new strategy within weeks of city voters passing legislation that eliminated minimum staffing requirements for the SFPD, the San Francisco Chronicle reported. Civilian responders will be able to respond to calls involving mental health, non-violent crimes and homelessness.

“Currently, police officers are the initial responders and primary resource on certain calls for service that may be better suited to mental health or non-law enforcement professionals,” POA President Tony Montoya said in the letter.

Thinning SF's social workers herd?
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

Hey, what could go wrong? 
You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.
