(Reuters) - A federal judge has ordered a hearing on Tucson shooting rampage suspect Jared Loughner's petition to stop prison officials from forcibly medicating him with anti-pyschotic drugs. U.S. District judge Larry Burns set the hearing for 2 p.m. on June 29 at the U.S. District Court in San Diego, California. Loughner, being held at a federal prisoners' hospital in Missouri, is not expected to attend, a spokesman for the prosecution said.

Bu, bu, but, it wasn't his fault, he was driven to it by Sarah Palin and other right-wing'gers!/major sarcasm
Any bets this guy will spend the rest of his life at a mental "hospital", at our expense?!
Jeez, would you rather they let that nut go free?
Keep him medicated and remind him who made him do this. LOL! He’ll be taken off medication and then an interview before the election and he will repeat what he was taught.
Can’t let a crisis go - they will milk it if they can.
Perhaps you missed my sarcasm......
Fry his ass...yesterday!!
This is not a new situation, IIRC. A case similar to this, where the madman’s lawyer was attempting to keep his client “unfit for trial” by defending his refusal of medications which would have such an effect, went up to the USSC, which said yes the defendant could be medicated against his will for the purpose of making him “fit for trial.” There was some consternation about this on FR at the time, I believe. The alleged legal dodge might be a new twist, but it seems to me unnecessary.
And you will hear Loughner say that he heard Sarah Palin’s dog whistle command.
Yes, I listen to a station that used to be associated with Air America Radio. The term “right wing dog whistle politics” is one of the standard snarky terms.
You surely missed Procon’s sarcasm.
He, like I and millions of others, want to see that lump of sub-humanity given a one-way ticket across the river Syx.
Can’t we just inject some little lead pills into head and fix him for good?
Could that be the river Styx???

They probably have an endless recording going in his cell
right now “you are an NRA life member...you are and NRA life
member......”

Probably 'cuz you're an NRA life member, you right-wing'ger..:=)
If he needs it to keep from hurting people then yes he should be forced to take it.Do you expect epople who work in mental hospitals/prisons to have to risk their lives around madmen?
Exactly. Why hasn’t this evil, sick SOB been fried yet?
Agreed. Kill him, as the picture above very wisely implies.
How the heck does this post while I’m checking spelling?
Probably ‘cuz you’re an NRA life member, you right-wing’ger..:=)
I guess I must be. I keep hearing this voice in my head.
Send the boy to “rehab”. The general public loves people who go to “rehab”.
