Today, individuals with disabilities are living independently, playing strong, active roles in the community.

Yeah, sometimes I have to step over them on my way to work.

Were some people improperly warehoused and medicated? You bet.

Has closing the "warehouses" and throwing them on their own resouces been a rousing success? I don't think so.

“At times, these children were heavily sedated, isolated and restrained.”

Today the schools just mandate they take Ridilin or other drugs.

We’ve come a long way... (sarc/off)
