I read somewhere, that many of the homeless are indeed, mentally-ill. Don’t know if that’s true or not... some articles:
“I read somewhere, that many of the homeless are indeed, mentally-ill.”
I knew this uber-liberal black man who had spent a career in mental health as a nurse. He told the story of a program where they bought houses, furniture and clothes for street people and moved them into free, nice houses. They sold the clothes and furniture and didn’t spend even one night in their houses. When he hunted them down they were mad at him for disrupting their lives.
Another homeless woman claimed she was somebody famous. When he contradicted her, she slapped him so hard he fell over backwards. She shook her finger and said, “Don’t ever contradict me.”
The Connecticut police called him out to certify a homeless guy who had nailed his penis to a tree. He took one look and said, “Yep. He’s crazy. Let’s try and get the nail out and lock him up.”
