In any case, I wouldn't go it alone. People should get a group together and do a little "community organizing" of their own. In this case, it would be "community rescue." The dirtbag politicians need to learn that the people are sick and tired of this crap.

BOSTON Valerie Diazs worst fears were realized when she opened the door to her Connecticut home in June to find grim-faced police officers on her front stoop.
They said, Well, we have to inform you that your daughter, Malissie Holloway, was found dead in a closet, Diaz said. I just kinda went into shock after that.
I still cant understand why, Diaz said. I dont understand why.
Her 24-year-old daughter, an ambitious singer afflicted with debilitating mental illnesses, had been found by workers at the Somerville, Mass., group home where she lived, dangling from a pipe. Her family is now questioning how closely Holloway was supervised at the home, run by a private vendor ( slumlord? ) hired by the Massachusetts Department of Mental Health.
I dont know how she reached that pipe that was like 12 feet in the air. I dont know how she was able to get a slipknot, Diaz said. I have more than my share of questions.
