100 years ago we had mental institutions where these people could go.
Now we have the streets.
But we’re so much more compassionate these days. (sarc)
That’s the one thing I hold against President Reagan, I know the court was about to order them all released anyway, but he could have told the Court to pound Sand. It wasn’t that long ago that the separation of powers was understood. The Court has no way of Enforcing Anything the Executive branch doesn’t want to enforce, this is where Congress can step in and fund or defund the Executive Branch to get what they want. Too Bad they don’t teach history, civics, math, reading... anymore, if they did we would have a revolution overnight.
