No it's not. First you have to further pacify the policing and government systems of the US, which are far too often hyper violent and cruel. That process has only just barely begun as it is (starting with reducing sentencing, sane drug laws, reducing police brutality, etc). If you mandate X for the dangerously mentally ill (which ones are supposedly dangerously mentally ill?), what you'll get is terrifying abuse of the mentally ill broadly, in many different ways. The US is not Finland. The US is not Norway. The US is not Estonia. We're not some soft, cuddly European-style welfare state. The US has a very, very, very violent government, a superpower government that likes to abuse its power, one that often does not respect the rights of its citizens. Before you give the governments in the US (federal, state or local) such powers of treatment (which would include forced detainment against their will, instantly walking to the thin line of human rights violations) you better pacify it first, or you will not like the results. Then we'll be here 20 years from now and it'll be an avalanche of laments about all the horrific human rights violations that happened under the Treating Mentally Ill People With Respect Act. Who could have seen it coming?!? We didn't expect them to do such horrible things with those powers! And so on.
