So if you can't afford rent in CA, you are gravely disabled.
Sounds like a 'great' idea. All cops have to do is say you misuse drugs or alcohol or get a someone to diagnose you with a mental illness and BAM your no longer free. I see no possible way for this to be abused. /s
Interesting how you dropped the second half of that sentence to try to hammer it into your point about "oh em gee teh gubmint is gunna git me".
The new law, which reforms the state’s conservatorship system, expands the definition of “gravely disabled” to include people who are unable to provide themselves basic needs such as food and shelter due to an untreated mental illness or unhealthy drugs and alcohol use.
How is 'unhealthy' defined?

How about you read the bill yourself instead of asking some dipshit on the internet to tell you what to think?
Wtf is wrong with you
People like you, I would assume
Looks like they addressed exactly that in the second paragraph of their comment.
