Here’s an interesting question: what would happen if we woke up one day, turned on the TV or checked FR, and found that they had indeed “contained” President Trump for mental evaluation? What would our reaction be?

Don’t know what the collective reaction would be, but I know mine.

I’d instantly realize that the fight is over and lost. The “they” that contained Trump would NOT be acting out of any concern of his mental health, but rather to advance (significantly!) their globullist and anti-American agenda.

Thanks for asking that, because it is a good exercise, even if remote (today at least) possibility, to think about... and to help renew, if needed, the zeal for the cause - American liberty, as this experiment was intended.

PSychiatry is not a science; it does not respond to deductive logic. It is not like physics, chemistry, math, biology, etc. It is not a science therefore she has no basis for making the allegations she makes.

Psychiatry and psychology are opinions and based on more opinions and yet more opinions. I do understand those who “practice” the best and most profound sounding allegations seem most learned....but neither soft professional sphere is a science.

And she is alleging all kinds of things without ever talking directly with the subject of her allegations. I am astounded people actually listen to her.

Ignore her.

Those who are themselves menally unstable teach psych.

There's an old saying about such things - the plumber's house having leaky pipes, and so on. It certainly seems appropriate in this case.

>>Most..if not all...psychiatrists need regular therapy themselves.<<

I’m not certain it is still true today, but in the early ‘60s when I was in college we used a textbook in either Psychology or Sociology that listed suicide rates by occupation. Psychiatry was at the top of the list.

>>This is just another example of Liberals not being able to get over losing the election.<<

Every American who is tuned in to what the Leftists have been doing since the election of Donald Trump should be aware by now that his election constituted a shocking setback in the Left’s long-range goal of transforming our Constitutional Republic into a vassal state of globalism.

I’ve never before heard the expression “head squeezers”! Pardon my ignorance, but what does it mean?

What does the name head squeezers mean? Well, that’s just another name for those who supposedly treat people with mental problems and if they find none they squeeze their heads until they do find something. Years ago I worked for a hospital and a DOCTOR called psychiatrists that word and it stuck.........;)

Thanks for sharing this. I’ll be using it myself from now on.

>>Lee responded, “We encounter this often in mental health. Those who most require an evaluation are the least likely to submit to one. That is the reason why in all 50 states we have not only the legal authority, but often the legal obligation, to contain someone even against their will when it’s an emergency. So in an emergency, neither consent nor confidentiality requirements hold. Safety comes first. What we do in the case of danger is we contain the person, we remove them from access to weapons, and we do an urgent evaluation.”<<

This ignorant cretin has expressed here exactly what the procedure was in the Soviet Union and in Nazi Germany for “containing” anyone who publicly criticized the murderous regimes that had enslaved them. Should be among the first to pay the ultimate price when the shooting starts. PIECE OF GARBAGE!

>>Psychiatry is not a science ...<<

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Well said. And the attempts of the profession to reduce diagnoses to a checklist of symptoms (i.e., DSM-IV or V) have created an entire industry of s#it-spewing idiots claiming to be clinical psychologists of one ilk or another.

I know there are some who help; but I do not think it is the majority.

If you choose to go ahead, do not pester them with your political opinions. It is a narrow fact question about the standard that the Board upholds for diagnosis and advocacy of confinement against a person’s will. Do her public utterances and her book comply with the relevant standard of care, or not?
