Los Angeles Police Department Chief Michel Moore called the incident “a tragic and senseless murder directly tied to the failure of this nation’s mental health resources” on Twitter.
“We can and must do better. This victim lived her life for others. We are falling short.”
Los Angeles County Supervisor Kathryn Barger has called for a full investigation into the assault.
Barger argued that essential workers need "more safe and stable environments" especially given their tedious work conditions amid the pandemic.
“Our County has an urgent need to work with public safety, mental health and transportation providers to create more safe and stable environments,” Barger said. “Our essential workers are battling a pandemic and working long hours in tough conditions — at a minimum, they deserve that.”
Right, so you’ll continue doing nothing and pass the blame?…. This is the idiocy of virtue signaling
People also want to pretend that having access to mental health services is some magical panacea that can fix all social ills.
Anyone who has personally experienced mental health settings and practices know that it's hopelessly bureaucratic and mostly pseudoscienctific.
Just imagine how shitty most physical health services are that treat the rest of the body's ailments.
Now remove all scientific advances over the last century, add endless talking without clear purpose, an armamentarium of MeToo drugs that have shoddy evidence of benefit over placebo, a field run by narcissists, megalomaniacs and weirdos along with healthy doses of wokeness and woo.
Meanwhile they also claim we shouldn't even attempt using mental health treatments for troons, just butcher perfectly healthy body parts.
Another thing is homosexuality. I am NOT saying every gay person is so because of trauma and it can be changed every time.
BUT. Claiming every form of therapy, meditation, self-help stuff is conversion therapy and it's not allowed even for consenting adults is absolute fascism.
We admit that sexual trauma can lead to mental health issues, like anxiety, eating disorders and yes, things like hypersexual behaviour or the opposite, repulsion.
But try talking about how it can also cause issues with gender identity or sexuality becoming... something else.
Then there's the whole "addiction is a disease, people shouldn't be held responsible for their actions and shouldn't face legal consequences".
Obviously there's an involuntary compulsive component to addiction.
But blindly believing that medical problems only have medical solutions removes all agency and responsibility from the individual. It also allows them and others to blame "the system" whenever they relapse.
Addiction is handled so weirdly. It's "it can happen to anyone", but then when someone says "I actively resisted and I am just not going to even give it a chance", then SJW types get pissed. Like how DARE you be responsible and know yourself?
I form habits easily, like I know for a fact I can get into coping shit for comfort. So when I say I am not going to even tempt fate with excessive drinking or doing drugs of any kind, people still get bitchy and defensive and try to tell me I'm stupid.
It's an illness, but avoiding it is still bad. K.
You know they don't.
They do for opposing viewpoints like doctors who actually treat their patients.
It has to be. Crazy people don't go to treatment just because it's available.
Right, so you’ll continue doing nothing and pass the blame?…. This is the idiocy of virtue signaling
There is a point with mental health issues where you've elected to avoid treatment, and you are now responsible for being ill.
But responsibility is kryptonite to leftists, so here we are.
Ridiculous
how long until megacity one here gets judges?

Great points.
