Well, there is truth to this, but I'm not sure the same set of rules apply to some of the mentally distrubed people being discussed. You can find videos fairly easily of the outlier cases on Youtube, persons who patrol boardwalks and due to whatever malady decide to do things like attack people physically, defecate on people or people's property, break property, and worse. I'm not really sure that they are exercising their free will when their brains have them wired to think there's a demon in a TV display for the bus schedule. Mental illnesses are heart breaking and they're a problem that most people don't want to deal with; those with extreme cases often are shunned by society and end up in precarious situations and fall further into the illness, making treatment even more difficult. It's a very bad situation that doesn't have a clean answer. While I understand that there is a very large air of caution around setting a precedent that the Government can just declare someone insane and remove their free will, there also has to be a practical side when said person is very clearly a danger to those around them. The penal system wants nothing to do with such cases, current mental health and homeless support doesn't have enough support or funding to help out enough of the cases. It's just a really shitty situation to be in.
