Absolutes are really tough to lay out for other people ... mentally ill people exist and rage, throw things, and exhibit all sorts of deviant and unexpected behavior. You know what they say about walking in someone else's shoes, right? Kick 'em out? Hospitalize? Call the police? Talk them down and try again later? Do a 5150? All that has consequences that you may not know about and later regret.

Sure - good principles. Now your 19 year old just threw a bottle at you in a rage. Or is tripping balls on drugs. I've talked down a number of people on drugs and had an abusive parent. Great advice ... now live it.
