[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The vast majority of these "homeless" people are so mentally ill that they are truly unable to adequately care for themselves. In the not-so-distant past, society had a means of taking care of these people: mental institutions where these mentally ill people got food, medical care, and proper housing. Then all of a sudden, the liberals shut down these government-run institutions, and put these crazy people out on the streets....where they do drugs, create filthy "encampments", defecate on the sidewalks, and freeze to death in the winter. So let's re-open (or build new) mental hospitals where these sad unfortunate people can be taken care of....whether they like it or not. It's for their own good. And for ours too. There's an excellent video on the subject. It's an hour long, and it's called "Seattle Is Dying". It's on YouTube.[/quote] I know the GOP is currently running away from Ronald Wilson Reagan’s legacy, but I did not know that y’all now consider the late POTUS a liberal. Interesting. [/quote] The ACLU claims that shutting down the institutions is one of its greatest achievements. It was the left and right acting together that created the current situation. I understand the issues with the institutions but am not sure that the status quo is an improvement. It is cruel. [b]San Francisco is moving back to involuntary commitment[/b].[/quote] Can you share more information on this? Our Council pretty much tries to do everything the San Francisco way. [/quote]
