Leaving aside the bizarre comments about breeding animals and humans, it's certainly the case that mental health hospitals are prone to abuses. Sadly, there will likely always be a need for them. Like prisons, some people are just unable to live with others safely. Sometimes they can be helped, but many cannot and will have to spend their entire lives without freedom. Until we discover a means to help them I can accept that. What I can't accept is the way those people are often treated. Being confined is terrible, but they should still be well treated/looked after and, as much as possible, allowed to pursue their own interests and lead meaningful productive lives. Ultimately I think that it'd take oversight and transparency to prevent people being "disappeared" without cause or necessity. I'd hope that a hospital would need to make their case to a judge and/or an independent body of professionals to justify keeping someone locked up against their will for longer than a couple days (as an assessment/suicide watch period) which can be challenged and reviewed.
