    The use of the word, “could” in this headline is such gaslighting

    The laws can’t force them to get help & most don’t want help anyway, they want to keep doing drugs

      It's because they are self medicating, they are unaware they are mentally ill. Me for example when I became mentally I was unaware of it.

      How's a mentally ill person supposed to get help by regular people? These people need proper facilities with psychiatrists, you know from batman movies the "asylum", well those places did really exist in the past, they did atrocities(like testing on humans) in them in the US, instead of fixing these facilities, the government just shut them down and let them between shelters and hospitals, it's a vicious cycle that's been going for decades and the main perpetrator is the federal government.

    So let me get this straight, as long as tourist keep spending that $74 Billion a year, there's no need to do anything to fix the problems plaguing the city. So the fate of all NYers is in the hands of the tourists and the almighty dollar? Got it.

    We need DA Braggs to reform our laws to keep violent people in jail or in mental hospitals until they are better and stop giving people slaps on their risk. Also we need to make harsher penalties for shoplifting because these
    Migrants are the main culprit of this in NYC now.
