Who supports the idea of Universal mental Health cover?
Other questions to ask or talk about.
Should there be a point even when non violent that a mentally ill person should be committed against their will?
The definition for losing ones rights under law due to mental illness requires a judge to rule on the matter. This includes involuntary commitment.
A local authority can involuntarily commit someone but within a specific time frame ( based on State and federal law) that person must be seen by a judge and further commitment so ordered by a Judge after a hearing.
If a mentally ill person refuses to medicate should the Government have the power short of a Judges order to force compliance?
