I especially like the dude's partner yelling, "Hey! Let him go! Let him go!" while he stood from safety.

For some clarity: The vaccine doesn't give you a virus totally different than whatever it designed to immunize you against. Like all viruses, you either have it or you don't. I would be willing to wager that what they'll find is that the patient had the herpes zoster virus, but it was dormant, and the vaccine somehow prevents the virus from being restrained by the body's immune system. That is the nature of herpes after all.

No, he failed to show for his hearing. No hearing = no resolution and therefor not being put on a prohibition list.

He also fell through the cracks in their Red Flag Law.

I've been on this position for quite some time. It is clear that what we are doing is ineffective, and that's got to change. If someone is demonstrably ill then sociecty should be allowed to force that person into mental healthcare as long as there are checks and balances in place - such as a panel of psychologies/psychiatrists that are independent of the institution that review cases. This would minimize the chances of someone who was been successfully treated from being held longer than they should be held.

"Indianapolis Deputy Police Chief Craig McCartt said during an afternoon news briefing that police had responded to Brandon Hole's home last year and seized a gun after he was reportedly voicing suicidal thoughts."

Now they are saying that he was a former employee of FedEx.
-
Shooter is ID'd as Brandon Scott Hole, a 19-year old. Doesn't say that he has any link to FedEx.

There are bad people in all professions, but should we throw the baby out with the bathwater? I would say that in the case of continual forced treatment that a panel of psychologist that are outside of the "asylum's" organization make an independent review panel to provide oversight of the system.

I'd say a psychologist. They could commit for 48 hours or so for an evaluation, and then the judge and psychologist can decide to what extent it is needed. Mental health treatment is much better than it was in my grandpa's day.

My maternal grandfather was a demolitions expert in the early part of 1900's. Amongst some of his work was the WWI War Memorial, Municipal Auditorium, and Union Station in Kansas City, MO. This was back when you couldn't get as far away from the explosions as you can now. My grandmother told me of his story just once. As the story goes, being that close to repeated explosions can induce a type of psychosis to which he fell victim to, and they committed him into an asylum in St. Joseph, MO when my mom was just 3 years old - about 1940. One day grandpa called grandma, (who was a nurse), and told her, "Daphne, you've got to get me outta her. They are going to kill me!" Grandma assured him that wasn't going to happen and to just relax and get better. The next day grandma got a call from the asylum to be informed grandpa was dead. They claimed that he slipped on a puddle of water and hit his head on the metal frame of his hospital bed and died. My grandma - unlike my paternal grandpa who exaggerated stories - was known to tell the God's honest truth. I have no reason to believe that what she told me many decades later was the truth of what happened. Regardless of the above, I think that it was a huge mistake for the Supreme Court to disallow the ability of family members and the judicial system to force someone against their will into mental health facilities when it is obvious that the person needs mental health treatment. We can run such places much better now, and should do so.

There is no doubt that it is. People post way too much personal stuff online - even if they think their privacy setting protects them, which they don't. It may not even be a "friend" but your friend might mention what you have in casual conversation to another, or overheard by another, who decides that they want what you have.

Good for you. I don't trust that easy. People have to show me an investment in the group before I accept them - particularly at my house. When people have 1 or 2 posts and it's a for sale ad it's not an investment; it's sales, and it's no better than meeting someone from Craig's List.

I, plain and simple, do not do business with new members on this forum. I do not trust those that become members just to sell ____. I look for members who actually contribute to the forum, and I get a read of what they are like. Those that come here to sell _____ do not care about negative feedback. In fact, I wish that Dave would constrict the ability to sell items beyond being a benefactor - like benefactor for a year.

Friendly fire is pretty common in the chaos of police encounters.

Naw, I popped it myself. It did splatter a bit!
