A lot of those facilities were (and many still are) very awful and abusive.

in the us we do kind of just wait until our mentally ill die one way or another so I think I'd almost prefer an institution with problems to nothing tbh

In many cities they make up the majority of the homeless population and wander about unmedicated as FUCK

Many cities have a policy of buying their homeless people a one-way ticket to California

It's true, they put you on the bus and it's not your problem

Oh, i got a bit confused. Lots of cities will send their homeless people out of town with a one-way ticket.
It's Medicare patients that were largely being sent to California, at least from Vegas. It seems like they're also being dumped all over but with a concentration in California.

Apparently you can get a one time one way ticket back to somewhere as long as you have proof. And that's in most cities

Proof = have someone on the phone say they'll give you a place to stay. In some places, if you take that ticket, you can never go to a shelter or get resources in that city ever again...but they don't tell you that.

Yeah basically. They probably cut off local resources after too many folks said they were going to Maine from San Diego, hopped off at the first stop and pocketed the cash they give you for food and stuff and headed right back to town

I'm sure it's a combo of what you described and board members wanting to really impress upon the ticket-takers that they don't belong and aren't wanted there.

I often wonder if moments like that play out like the scene in the big Lebowski when the dude gets harassed by the Malibu chief of police
