EMTs often end up responding in these situations but the best they can do is take the person to an ER where they may or may not be cared for appropriately. Now with COVID I feel pretty sure that even going the EMT/ER route isn't an option.
The kid probably needed mental help for quite some time....
Why do these "parents" get a pass on their responsibility?
Oh - that's right - all cops are pigs bent on torturing and killing the "innocent"...
So sez the left.
Quick edit. Last 2 lines not aimed at you....

Anyone with any fucking sense doesn't need a MMQ to know that you simply don't mace a kid - especially one in handcuffs.
Go through the whole thread - I agree with you.
I just don't think this event happened in a vaccum.
The whole event is partially the fault of the "parents" who obviously did not do this kid any good... The parents didn't "obviously" do a damn thing.
The cops involved obviously did.

Only thing they didn't do was resolve the call. I hope the car is okay.

I’d be interested to know what the parents did that left the cops with only the option of pepper spraying a child.

Dispute over a car. That's the official answer. All that fuzz was there...for a possible stolen car.

Fine. If they had pepper sprayed the car, I wouldn’t have an issue. Right in the headlamps, where it’ll do the most good. Stupid, unruly, overweight cars are destroying the very fabric of society.

Yeah, but that would've been assault too. Turns out the car wasn't committing any crimes either. It's like the benny hill opener..if it ended with a kid in handcuffs getting maced and held.

But who agreed that the cops should have pepper sprayed her? No one that has posted in this thread, unless I missed a post. The parents are not to blame for her being pepper sprayed, but they are likely to blame for her having to be restrained, which people in the thread also have an issue with. The child probably wouldn't have been so distraught if her pregnant mother was not having a wrestling match with the father to the point of her bleeding, and at some point the child thought the mother stabbed the father because of how bad they were going at it to the point of blood being involved. So yeah, the parents do deserve blame for her being restrained. She was kicking and threatened to hurt herself. The police take the blame for her being sprayed. The parents take the blame for her being restrained.

You really are a one hit wonder....
You want to pretend that the cops showed up with the expressed desire to mace an angel.
....
Don't be an idiot. Don't try running or fighting with the cops. Do what the cop says. You WILL lose.
The parents didn't teach this kid these realities.
