Here's the comment:

Quote:Built in 1855, the Jackson institution was created as part of Civil War nurse-turned-mental health reformer Dorothea Dix’s drive to open facilities for the mentally ill who had until that point been jailed or otherwise shunned by society.


So, 162 years later we have regressed to the point where they are jailed.... if the fucking cops don't kill them outright... or otherwise shunned by society.  Yeah.... we're making 'Murrica Great Again.

My brain just did this thing in my head where it seemed to go back and then forward again. Maybe it was just my eyes surging forward and then back into their sockets. Fucking Reagan and the rest of them. Undecided
