I was recently involuntarily held in a mental hospital where I went through prison like conditions (strip search, had to wear scrubs, was locked in a room outside certain times a day, stuff like that) and thankfully came out in one piece after 8 days of this crap. I was just wondering why we subject people to these conditions when they haven’t even committed a crime?

    Because if they lose control everyone there is fucked and nobody gets helped. I realize this is nostupidquestions but come on, that one is pretty obvious. Having seen it firsthand yourself should have shown you that much.
