Arrr, mateys! Governor Kathy Hochul be seekin' to hoist the sails o' involuntary commitment laws, makin' it so hospitals can drag more scallywags with troubled minds into the hold fer treatment. Aye, 'tis a jolly good way to fill the brig with those needin' a good dose o' care!
Arrr, me hearties! Gather 'round as I regale ye with the tale of New York's fair governor, Kathy Hochul, who be plottin' to expand the laws o' involuntary commitment fer those poor souls troubled in the noggin! In the wake of some ruckus on the subway, where the scallywags be actin' more like landlubbers than fine citizens, she aims to haul more folks into treatment against their will.The good governor, with all the charm of a sea captain, declared her intent to introduce a new law to help combat the rise o' violent shenanigans that be plaguin' the underground. She be sayin', “It’s our duty to protect the public!” as if she be rallyin' the crew before a grand battle. But here’s the rub: mental health experts be warnin’ that most troubled souls be victims themselves, not the violent marauders ye might think.
Now, Hochul's plan be simple enough: make it easier to shanghai those in need o' help and to convince the courts to order treatments fer those who be wanderin' the streets like lost ships. But beware, me mateys, for the New York Civil Liberties Union be raisin' the Jolly Roger, claimin’ this be a threat to rights and freedoms! And so, the saga continues in the bustling streets where pirates of the mind clash with the law o' the land!
