Rather than protests and riots, perhaps the mentally ill need more lawyers who are willing to take their cases on pro bono. Judges just assume all police reports are truthful (unless there is a video that disproves it) then quickly move on. There needs to be cases won on the behalf of the mentally ill and publicized.
