Politicians don’t want to spend tax money (not their money but they find ways to make it theirs) on mental health. They’ll do it for prisons but not schools nor long term psychiatric care.

Will you do the right thing if it were you? James Shaw Jr. did the right thing. What would I do? I don’t ever want to find out. I doubt he could’ve known either, yet he did the right thing.
