[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can't just indefinitely cage a person. That would be an abuse of involuntary commitment. [/quote] Dp. If they refuse to take the meds and are endangered oh yes you can confine them to a room and board. I don’t understand why it’s ok to live in encampments. It’s one of the many examples of normalizing things that aren’t normal. [/quote] Because involuntary confinement has been historically abused to atrocious ends. It is a social conundrum that through out history we have failed to address because until it hits your family, no one seems to care.[/quote] Hospitals were "closed" 40 years ago. Time to regroup? The abuse today is leaving mentally ill people to die in the streets.[/quote]
