Praying for their full recovery.
When I asked “Where the heck is Ogden?” I was trying to give a hint that one should inform us of the state when just a city or town is referred to in the title.
Marijuana is beneficial for a number of conditions; I'm not aware of any research that shows that violent psychopathology is one of them.
You got your answer then...
And a couple of "friends" to hold the guy's arms:
WOD warrior note to self:
Check database to see if peasant we're going to put the beatdown on is former Airborne...
Yeah, well marijuana maybe beneficial for some conditions, but there are medicinal versions of the drug that can be used without smoking it.
The case in Bellingham, the guy was psychotic and under medical supervision, but decided that it was better to self medicate with marijuana, as the free drug crowd had told him that marijuana would cure what ailed him and make everything ok. He went nuts, and tried to kill his mother and sister. The father tried to stop him and got killed, instead. Marijuana is not a cure for psychosis, violent or otherwise. This man had not been violent before.
Oral administration is harder to titrate, and not appropriate for patients with nausea. Also irrelevant to the cases under discussion, absent evidence that oral cannabis is any better for mental patients than smoked.

What exactly is the "free drug crowd," and where is the evidence that the Bellingham guy was even aware of their views?
Shouldn’t have to work it....
Legalizing drugs will cause more problems than we have now.
Ron Paul is actually advocating the same steps to win the support of young people that George Soros uses when he goes into a new country, legalization of drugs and abortion. it’s a ploy to win the hearts and minds of the younger, less serious generation. I’d bet that Ron Paul’s foreign policy isn’t that different than what George Soros would propose, either. It’s odd that a Libertarian would and World Socialist would use the same organizing methods, don’t you think?
The proponents of drug legalization in WA have been pushing the use of marijuana as a substitute for prescription psychotropic drugs. You cannot trust a mentally ill person to know when that substitution is appropriate. Encouraging self medication is a dangerous.

The article and transcript state it was a knock and announce warrant.

Legalizing drugs will reduce or eliminate the problems exacerbated or caused by drug criminalization: the channeling of criminalization-inflated drug profits into criminal hands, the subsequent use of those profits to arm themselves and corrupt law enforcement, and the increased motivation for addicts to commit crimes to pay criminalization-inflated prices for their habits.

I'll bet they both wear pants, too - what of it?

Evidence?

That doesn't answer my question: where is the evidence that the Bellingham guy was even aware of their views?
The man’s family told the story after he killed his father.
Just found out that this is the same outfit that blew away the guy with the golf club last year!
