Abusive "treatment" centers stay open despite conservavirus

Let's face it. Rules don't apply to some people and agencies.

Throughout the latest crisis caused by right-wing incompetence - the latest of many - I've been careful to follow commonsense standards of sanitation. I will not allow my constitutional rights to be trampled by martial law, but nobody has been cleaner than I am. But "treatment" centers for "troubled teens" - the type of programs I've fought against for years - refuse to close even though other businesses have.

This entire industry is abusive. All these programs should close - pandemic or not.

If any place is likely to spread viruses - especially this virus - it's these facilities. Many states have ordered elective medical procedures to be delayed. Well, these programs are elective. Plus, they're not even medical. Abusive psychiatric "hospitals" claim to be medical, but they're still elective. Other programs don't even claim to be medical.

So why are they allowed?

The people who would scream at us for daring to oppose martial law are the same ones who would defend these abusive programs as being life-saving necessities. Bank on it.
