Treatment for the Mentally ill Homeless in San Francisco

San Francisco has a large “severely mental ill” population who refuse treatment.

Both residents and tourists have complained about the “mentally ill homeless people” that create havoc, according to city leaders.

For years the city has debated how to deal with them.  A version of a controversial law called Laura’s Law, has been recently implemented.

For a further description of Laura’s law that was created in 2002 in California see the referenced article S.F. tries version of Laura’s Law for mentally ill – SFGate.

For an in depth understanding of how mentally ill homeless people could influence a city spiritually see this teaching episode on Building the Warrior from Prophet.tv.

Psychologist says pedophilia is sexual orientation similar to homosexuality

Pedophilia is in the same category as homosexuality or heterosexuality.  It is a “sexual orientation”… according to two different psychologists testifying before a parliamentary session in Canada.

Doctors Vernon Quinsey and Dr. Hubert Van Gijseghem…

“Pedophiles are not simply people who commit a small offense from time to time but rather are grappling with what is equivalent to a sexual orientation just like another individual may be grappling with heterosexuality or even homosexuality.”

“True pedophiles have an exclusive preference for children, which is the same as having a sexual orientation. You cannot change this person’s sexual orientation. He may, however, remain abstinent.”

“There is no evidence that this sort of preference can be changed through treatment or through anything else.”
