My brother lived and works in NYC. The mentally ill are everywhere, mostly just trying to survive but a large number are making it unsafe to take the subway or walk down the street. So Adams has decided to forcibly institutionalize those that are dangerous. Meanwhile, it’s not certain where they will be sent or if there will be new services for those who aren’t dangerous but are living on the streets

I was referring to NYC in the late 70s and 80s when between homeless and gangs it was basically a war zone.
