[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think there is serious mental illness involved and we need to go back to a time where the city and police had more leeway to institutionalize persons refusing mental care or medicine.[/quote] Why?[/quote] Becuase too many homeless have serious mental I’ll eases like schizophrenia. It’s a revolving door, so they are known in the system but can’t be institutionalized against their will until AFTER they push a women in front of a train (NY)[/quote] I previously worked in a n urban library; most of the homeless who came in had serious mental health issues. Not all, but most. There was nothing we could do except have unruly people trespassed. One of the trespassed mentally ill homeless who harassed staff eventually killed someone, but not in the library thankfully. I don't want most people hospitalized against their will, but there was a reason for the existence of state run mental hospitals. [/quote]
