[quote=Anonymous]Too many articles to count this year about severely mentally ill people - mostly homeless or itinerant and often drawn from outside our city- victimizing OR being victimized in the District. How do we change our laws to treat them, even involuntarily, or have them sent back to their state for treatment? The latest victim of our inaction is a man from KY who spent his time cursing at people and trashcans, and was beaten so badly outside an Adam's Morgan bar that his brain spun around in his skull , as per Metro Section. Neither he nor his family, who had been trying to reconnect for years deserved this fate- all due to weak American protections for the mentally ill (and the public).[/quote]
