They are hurting big time. Are they receiving grief counselling and shelter?
Or being reinforced and encouraged to beleive that they are an entire class of victims deserving of revenge, chemical coping substances, and further alienation from functional society.
I have someone who is homeless. She could live with her mom but she can't do crack that way. She has to live on the street so she can have crack. She can't stay with me, because she will steal my stuff like she stole her mother's stuff. She can't be committed because she is not a "danger to herself or others." What is the answer?
