They[Judges] understand their salary and their retirement.
Other than that, they don’t give the first shit. Because, by and large, they do not have to rub shoulders with the unwashed masses. They are isolated from them.
Thank you so much for that link.
I hope everyone here will look at that and it will help them to stiffen their resolve to fight the bad guys. That little guy was slashed deeply. An innocent kid in a store. Disgusting.
There are no state asylums any more but there are mental wards in most hospitals.
But they are being used for serious cases like, some poor dude is being served with divorce papers so the wife calls in a "tip" that he is threatening the kids so he gets hauled off to a lockup where he has no rights and she can safely put all what was marital property in her name.
And it’s a handy way too get a person’s 2nd Amendment Rights nullified. Meanwhile we see the truly needy among the homeless, populating jails and sharing healthcare facilities with the comparatively sane, posing danger to others and themselves.
This is an issue that should be given higher priority than it currently has (little to none).
Maybe it's high time they're not anymore.
totally agree
this trend has zero respect for public safety
Another reason to avoid Walmart....
Totally.
The problems that the state mental hospitals were suppose to help remain and the problems that they caused are still here as well.
We got the worst of both worlds.
We need to have a process for admitting people into mental hospitals that respects their rights and works under the principle of "someone may have made an error" to prevent people who should not be locked up from being locked up.
In my state we had a highly placed doctor who was involuntarily committing people who had "good insurance". These people were not a threat to themselves or others, they were often people who had a recent death in the family but were unmarried. Many of them found that when they got out (because their insurance ran out) they had lost jobs, cars, houses, pets and such. So the abuses of the system remain.
But try to get someone committed who has repeatedly shown themselves to be a danger by acts of violence against the public is a regular nightmare.
Substitute "guilty by reason of insanity" and we'll talk.
They cut open their kids to pull out all the snakes that are inside them because they want to save them.
They munch on the delicious Turkey leg and have no idea they are actually chewing on someone's arm.
They are insane, bonkers, not in their right mind. It is not just to try to punish them because they can not learn anything from the punishment. But they are dangerous and need to be kept locked away from people because of that reason.
Not guilty by reason of insanity means that they can declare that you are fine and let you go. Guilty but insane means that you stay locked up.
