They're actually just "articles" unless they prove what you want them to ?

Yup. 

Oh well, maybe you can be good at darts or something.

The leftist credo. 

First, Gov. Reagan signed the Lanterman-Petris-Short Act in 1967, all but ending the practice of institutionalizing patients against their will. The number of mentally ill people entering the criminal justice system doubled the first year after the Lanterman-Petris-Short act 

In 1981 President Ronald Reagan, who had made major efforts during his Governorship to reduce funding and enlistment for California mental institutions, pushed a political effort through the Democratically controlled House of Representatives and a Republican controlled Senate to repeal most of MHSA.

So, throughout the years, Reagans actions inadvertently led to the homeless problem we have today 

I get it. Reality confuses you.

A lot of far right zealots have this problem.

From what I can tell, the ailment is not curable.

People weren't just being incarcerated against their will back when Reagan signed that bill, they were being lobotomized and treated like swine, etc. It was barbaric.

Thanks for popping out from behind the dumpster, in between jobs, to reveal your inner ugliness once again. 

If CNN gave an infinite number of monkeys an infinite number of typewriters, leftists would believe everything they typed.

If you missed something on the Cultist Narrative Network, don't worry, the dolt horde here will make sure everyone hears it.

Ok. How am I wrong.

Explain.

Literally posted that not 4 replies above.  Your own sources demonstrate that it was not regan who began letting people out of mental health institutions in the slighetst.  You obviously didn't read them

So - you were obviously unable to understand that explination - i'll  make it simpler.

You are wrong because you're the kind of tard who does 3 second google searches to try to prove a point she just made up and then posts links without reading.  In short - you're wrong because you're dumber than a stamp hammer and twice as ugly. 

(the ugly part may or may not play a role in why you're wrong, but i felt it was worth mentioning just in case :) )

It's good that you're admitting I'm right.

We're making real progress!!

I guess you're having issues with reading comprehension.

Here it is again.

Suck it up pinhead.

1) You're never right

2) This thread, in general, just bemoans the fact that this forum is full of the types of loonies who never used to have an audience before... They were relegated to street corners yelling their prophecies. It's not an actual commentary on the emptying of psych wards lol. That being said, what Reagan did made a lot of sense at the time.

Since then, leftists are the ones who are mostly to blame for our inability to institutionalize people who need it. This should be back to a reasonable level right now. It's as if we're stuck in "Underage girls have to carry their baby to term even if they're raped" mode in 2023. 

When a guy makes statements about his desire to kill people, and says he hears voices, we should have a solution for that. Right now we don't. 

3) Biden is actually emptying prisons to make room for mostly peaceful protesters from Jan 6th, so he is causing bigger problems, but he'n not responsible for people like you being here.

Do you ever read ANYTHING?

My Aunt was the director of a very large state mental hospital and during the Reagan term she was forced to release 50% of the inmates due to Federal budget cuts.  This was what started the homeless epidemic. It started in the 1980’s. On top of that, millions of indigents lost their public assistance funding, and Clinton “reformed” away more, throwing millions more on the streets.

So it WASN'T regan who let them out. He just said they can't be institutionalized against their will. Which is more like not letting people be stuffed in. And that's California ONLY.

And then a bunch of people in a democrat controlled house kicked them out. So... not regan.

LOL - you know you're a loser when you post the proof you're wrong in your own post :) 

And as you previously posted - this all started long before regan came along. In fact there had been a 40 percent reduction in institutionalization in Cali between its height and when Regan got elected.  So - regan actually did far less as governor.

 

LOL - i don't really get why lefties do this.  I see it a lot and not just with me - it's like you're so blind in your ideology that you can't even see you just proved yourself wrong.  That's what you get for using 'muh feels' rather than your brains. Which is why nobldy trusts the left anymore.

 

Regan didn't "let the crazys out" -  Apparently you got out when the democratic house voted :)  LOL!
