    But you don’t know what among these options have already been tried. You can’t just force someone to move to a different facility unless they have a guardian, and I can only assume this woman does not have a guardian and has capacity to make her own decisions. Again, we do not have the information necessary to draw a legitimate moral judgment for or against this facility

      This is irrelevant if we’re talking about a hypothetical. It’s also irrelevant if we aren’t, because my list is by no means exhaustive, just things I came up with off the top of my head.

      Right, no one suggested that. When I suggested that she be moved to a facility better suited to her needs, I was implying that the proper avenues would be used to do that. I wasn’t suggesting anyone force anyone to do anything, and it’s concerning that that’s the conclusion you jumped to.

      Is just really funny, and I hope you’re able to see that.

      Also, we definitely do have enough information to make a legitimate moral judgement on a facility that evicted a 93 year old and had her arrested and forcibly removed from her home.
