Against their will?

If someone close to you had serious mental issues would you prefer them to be homeless or in an institution that will look after them?

Well put it this way.  Sadly some  people with mental illness, due to the very nature of their condition, are unable to make an informed decision on what is best for their wellbeing.  Unfortunately that is part of the reason so many end up Homeless.  So yes, potentially some people could be put in an asylum against their will. But for their own good.  If you think it’s kinder to leave a Mentally Ill person on the streets and Homeless that is your opinion but I don’t agree.

“45% of people experiencing homelessness have been diagnosed with a mental health issue. This rises to 8 out of 10 people who are sleeping rough.”
 

And as I am taking about the Homeless in town that are rough sleepers - the people you see behaving oddly, drunk, taking drugs, begging, stealing etc - then yes, most of them are mentally ill.  80%.  Many of these people did indeed ought to put in a mental asylum so they can be treated with suitable medication for their condition and looked after.

So you have taken the odd leap of logic that anyone diagnosed with a mental health condition, no matter how severe, needs to be in an asylum?

 

Be honest, this is all just about you hating the sight of Homeless people and wanting them moved from your sight isn't it.

No.  This is saying the mentally ill who are Homeless and unable to care for themselves due to their mental condition should be cared for properly in a mental institution.  As I said before if you think it’s kinder to leave the mentally ill homeless and on the street that is your opinion to which you are entitled but I don’t agree.
