It all started in 1966 with Frederick Wiseman's documentary film, "Titicut Follies," a look into the Massachusetts Home for the Criminally Insane at Bridgeater. I saw the film on PBS years ago, and it's difficult to watch. The inmates were treated no better than animals. This gained the attention of mental health professionals who decided it was time to put an end to snake pits like that.
The idea was to close the asylums and create locally based facilities for the treatment of the mentally ill. Gov. Reagan and other governors closed many of the snake pits, but the locally based facilities were never funded. Only half the problem was solved.

My First wife on the advice of her sister, a lawyer, pulled every little trick like that to ruin me. IMO women that do that should be executed because they are trying to ruin a man’s life for the rest of his life.

Why would a person keep all their eggs. So they can all be taken at once.

And why would you do that.

They really wanted to make it a white flag but that was too obvious.

Sen Graham is OK with US arms giveaways to foreign countries
but he is “hammering out” tougher gun control laws for Americans.

I am sorry you went through that.
And IMHO, which counts for exactly nothing, if you accuse someone falsely you should get the same punishment that you planned for them.
No more, no less.
It might stop that kind of thing.

Meanwhile the left does want to confiscate guns
And says you can’t lock up crazy people (or even require bail from violent ones)

When you buy a gun, you have to assert:
1) You are not crazy.
2) You are not on drugs.

I know that’s the case in my old state of Maryland. I had an uncle whose wife, an evil, nasty woman, swore out an order of protection against him. Under a 2009 state law, his guns were confiscated from him. Then she had her brother and another man shoot him dead in front of his bar after she made him a sitting duck.
