      TID: Mystic BBS 1.12 A49       MSGID: 1:342/200 fb55b80c       REPLY: 1:120/616 792bce30       TZUTC: -0700        RL> RL> Which is interesting because it's the Left who wanted to close mental        RL> RL> institutions.        RL>         RL> AT> Things were probably stagnant for a while; sometimes the pot needs to        RL> AT> be stirred.        RL>         RL> No. It was planned to help with their agenda.              I understand, and I see it that way too. But that's what I meant by they       needed to "stir the pot." They needed to create more problems that they could       mandate "solutions" for.               RL> One of the things that people noticed is that as the mental hospitals        RL> closed, the number of people in prison went up.              I didn't see it like that here, but I did see Democrats (Cuomo most recently)       closing mental institutions with more homeless and more crime; I don't believe       that they're going to jail though, because jail has been cancelled in my state       for most people.               RL> AT> "Hmm, maybe I need mental health services?"        RL>         RL> More like the kid thinks "What's this?"        RL>         RL> And the mental health "professional" who needs to have patients to        RL> justify his pay, convinces the kid that the kid needs help.              This is going to be another one of those "ultimate tests of intelligence."       We're going to see who thinks it's perfectly natural for public schools to       administer mental health services.              --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A49 2023/04/30 (Windows/64)        * Origin: JoesBBS.Com, Telnet:23 SSH:22 HTTP:80 (1:342/200)       SEEN-BY: 105/81 106/201 128/187 129/14 305 153/7715 154/110 218/700       SEEN-BY: 226/30 227/114 229/110 206 300 307 317 400 426 428 470 700       SEEN-BY: 229/705 266/512 291/111 292/854 320/219 322/757 342/200 202       SEEN-BY: 396/45 460/58 633/280 712/848 902/26 5075/35       PATH: 342/200 229/426           |
