Well, we can start somewhere, right? Like fraudulent panhandling. Or the various forms of low-grade assault that is typically ignored rather than added to a history documenting mental illness.
I have a neighbor who lives on her own that regularly forgets her husband is dead. She leaves the gas stove on. Is it that hard to hold the authorities accountable in documenting that history and certifying that (very sweet when healthy) lady as no longer qualified to live on her own?
