My guess it wasn't a babble "rule", but some kind of evidence of criminal activity or intent. Drug distribution? A credible threat against someone perhaps? Something like that. Breaking board civility rules seems unlikely to result in police action. There are no laws about being polite that I am aware of, anyway. I also speculate that a lot of psychiatrists are experienced with being insulted by some of their patients. If Dr. Bob went to the police saying, "A poster on the internet called me a Whatever", or, "Poster So-and-So called Someone a Whatever even after we gave a PCB"- they'd likely tell him that they couldn't care less, and to stop bugging them.
