“Anyone starts talking about lucid dreaming or illusions changing the past, pull their damned guns. This is the same thing 2 times now. Loughner and now this dude.”
And to assist in this task let’s have a national registry, and an annual monitoring fee to pay for the administrative overhead - It’s not a tax, mind you - and then we can have a central warehouse to keep all the guns.....and then....
No. The problem here is the same. Parents/family who wish little junior (even when he is all grown up) was “normal” and pretend that he’s not really crazy.
This is three times for high-profile cases, actually. Virginia Tech has to be included too - though the perp there did not apparently have dreams, rather was just “normal” crazy.
Never mentioned about a registry. Never actually thought about how it would be implemented. I guess the way it could happen, is kinda a quasi-Baker-Act deal. Concerned relatives could petition the court for a (rapid) hearing for declaration of insanity, backed by a true examination by a real and unbiased psychological doctorate, and of course the 1968 GCA would then apply.
