Back in the 1980s, then-President Reagan began closing state mental hospitals across the nation. He had started doing so in California in the 1970s when he was governor. Medical professionals had urged him to close such facilities in favor of outpatient therapy, social worker services, and medication. It was thought that closing the mental hospitals would stop abuses that took place there and would save money related to operating these hospitals. But now we are living with the consequences of not confining those with mental illness so that they can receive proper treatment and support. Mentally ill people are often left to fend for themselves, are not compliant with taking medications, and become homeless. If street drugs are involved, these people can become a real danger to themselves and others.
And yet, the left and liberals STILL won't vote to reopen them, it's been over 40 years in a stupidly left leaning state and the fearless comrades YOU vote for WON'T do anything to help the homeless. The guilty white liberal thinks that dumping them on the streets is "freedom" for them. YOU own this and YOU are all at fault. Start by defunding all of the homeless advocates, those bleeding heart kiddies cause more trouble to make themselves feeeelllll good and they have done more harm for their "social justice". You can fix it, you just wont.
THANK YOU ! And he had them turned loose in Oakland, Berkeley, Richmond, etc but NEVER is Walnut Creek, Orinda, Pleasant Hill because those were the cities where his wealthy donors contributed to his campaign. Disgusting.
But my question is why hasn't any president or congressional class (right or left) done anything since? That was over 40 years ago. It's not like the homeless and mentally ill problem is new. I was in grad school in Birmingham, AL in the mid-90s and the downtown streets were filled with middle aged homeless Vietnam vets who were mentally messed up. While helping the homeless in Jacksonville, FL in the mid-00s when I lived there, drugs where sending people all over the streets and making them crazy. We are now about to go into 2025 and no one leading the country even thinks about this...which is no different than the past 40+ years of leaders.
I live in a very safe neighborhood. However, since 2-3 years ago, violent and mentally ill homeless people started to come and there has been several attacks on people, including stabbing. The “unhoused” these days are a whole different breed than in the past.
Lifelong Californian here. It is unacceptable and embarrassing how we let things get so out of control in this state. We can blame politicians all we want but this falls on the residents of the State. Time to make changes.
It's truly insane, the way homeless people are allowed to behave in public. I'm liberal, and it outrages me that leaders who refuse to properly address this problem basically lost us the election. Our country will be ruined because mayors and law enforcement failed to act. Just because you're homeless doesn't mean you should be allowed to commit crimes and terrorize people without consequence.
@@tiger1044 Point taken. I vote, but I don't pay attention. I mean, does it really matter? They're not going to change because it's right or because of a march. The only thing we can do is vote them out, unless we go 3D.
