Social work cannot be compared to police work. We can talk about its faults, as you have, and we should. But they are not comparable. Social workers are not trained like soldiers and given guns.

To be fair cops aren’t trained like soldiers either or they would have much more restraint.  The RoE for soldiers in most cases is you cannot use your weapon unless fired upon.  Vs the cops where it is ‘I see what I think was a weapon but turned out to be a cellphone on their hand’ gives them the right to unload.
