    BB> At any rate this type of guy should be done away with.  AFAIC he's   
    BB> lost his right to exist.   
      
    BB> Same with our nutcakes that do this.  OK, maybe they're nuts, but so   
    BB> what?  Acts like shooting up a school should be a defacto death   
    BB> sentence.   
      
      
    RW> I happen to agree with you.  AS I've said before in this   
    RW> echo, I worked for a mission for the homeless which was a   
    RW> dumping ground for the state mental hospital when they had   
    RW> patients "ready" for outpatient, but nobody to really   
    RW> monitor them or places where they were somewhat supervised.   
    RW> YOu wouldn't believe some of the stuff I saw those people   
    RW> do.   
      
    RW> I'm not a bigot, and I do believe that people should be   
    RW> treated fairly and humanely, but there are some folks who   
    RW> shouldn't be walkiong around without a keeper.  Some of them are way   
    RW> too dangerous to be turned loose in public, and if   
    RW> we can't have them well supervised, the best thing to do is   
    RW> fix 'em up a hot shot and push teh damned needle in.   
      
    RW> There was one I had to deal with who was violent, I had to   
    RW> replace the white cane i use to move about three times in   
    RW> the same period of months, and i finally told the boss   
    RW> preacher there that if the state mental health folks dumped   
    RW> him on us again i"d probably slit his throat while he slept, and   
    RW> consider it taking out the garbage.   
      
    RW> Removing him from the living would take care of the issue   
    RW> where he's concerned, but there are thousands of others, and our   
    RW> so-called mental health infrastructure doesn't do its   
    RW> job properly.  I understand that these folks have a right to live in   
    RW> the least restrictive environment possible, but   
    RW> public safety should be a prime consideration when   
    RW> determining this.   
      
      
      
   Yes, it is a sad situation, but I still believe that once these types cross the   
   line, it's best just to remove them.   Even the Doc's admit that some of these   
   real whackos will never be better and are just ticking time bombs.   
      
   Kinda like drunk drivers.  It's pretty common to hear about one killing someone   
   while driving drunk, then they go on to state this is his 3rd time arrested   
   while driving drunk, his license has been suspended - yet now he has a death on   
   his hands.  NOW they'll do something about him, but man what a price someone   
   paid to get to that point.
