You know it's getting bad when all the top comments on the NYT article are in favor if this. But a few hyper progressive assholes will ruin it for all of us.

Nothing is ever enough for those idiots. You could plug a hole in a sinking migrant ship and still get flack over the pint of oil on deck that spilled.

Forget the whole civil liberties bit and answer this: Please tell me how a system with no plan for long-term mental health care for the homeless is actually a good idea.

Who cares. We need action now. Figure it out later.

Action doesn’t matter if it doesn’t accomplish anything, though.

Getting these lunatics off the street accomplishes an awful lot.

But it doesn’t get them off the street. That’s my whole point.

What system? The city doesn't make mental health problems. With varying degree, everyone has some degree of mental health issues but the most troublesome are the drug addicted and homeless. You can't throw enough money at the problem for it to fix itself.

But that’s the problem. The plan is the system I’m talking about. The hospital system doesn’t have the ability to provide long-term care for these individuals, so they’ll more likely than not end up back in the street.
