All indications shooting was committed once again. But a Mentally Ill nutcase who had access to firearms when they shouldn’t have.
Maybe if we had a place to stick the mentally ill for them to get treatment or at least be kept away from everyone else. Maybe then parents can feel safe again.
Oh I forgot. We closed most of them down and made it even more difficult to get people who might be dangerous forcibly committed.
You are so very right. Texas closed down the state hospital (where a friend worked) and they literally put everyone out onto the streets. It was so crazy.
I get why people were outraged. Some of those facilities were utter horror shows. But the response was throw the Baby out with the Bathwater. At the behest of Activists whose only goal really was shutdown the Asylums. And make getting forcibly committed harder.
With the only real plan of what happened afterward being some vague outlines of “Community Focused” treatment. That ultimately never materialized in any meaningful fashion.
Yes, it was crazy just to shut them down without a clear plan for how to take care of the people that would be on the streets. In Austin there is a literal city of homeless people living under the overpasses with no plan to help them at all.
