Sounds either like Alzheimers, or perhaps someone who was from a mental health group home. Breaks my heart.
During the Reagan years, which is probably before your time; during his inauguration the police rounded up all the homeless and mentaly challenged who were out living on the streets and jailed them so that the visiting dignitaries would not see them. It was extremely disturbing for all of us who lived in D.C. They should have been cared for properly. |
