Mental Health Warrant

[S.A. Boggs]

How about having a law passed that a LEO or Mental Health Professional be able to go before a judge and request that a person be able to be held for 72 hours for a mental health exam. Say a new person lies a great deal they be "secured" to see if they have an issue and be treated accordingly. MSM is an influence on society with their lying, why not start here? Mental hospitals are not all that bad and it could save someone's life so why not? This ought to please the socialist demoncrats on this board.

You're off the deep end here.

People are "screaming" do something, why not this? Having worked in mental health this sounds "reasonable" to start here getting "ill" people off the street. RKT from your hatred of those who survived cancer perhaps you are afraid of being examined. What are you afraid of, being detained and examined for mental health issues? Clinically I feel you have "anger" issues that need to be "examined" and possibly treated, what is wrong with that. If you are sane then you can go free, if not then perhaps "treatment" is warranted by trained mental health professionals.

In PA it's called a 302. Used when someone is a danger to themselves or others.

I went many times with one of our team and law enforcement to take someone into custody for their/others good. People need to say something, not just stand there with their phone taking a picture.

HIPAA laws would have to be substantially changed for your fitness brown shirts to start surveillance.

I hold no I'll will towards those in cancer remission. Perhaps there's something else that would sway a person's opinion of you?

How about if we have mental health professionals decide if some people should be denied access to alcohol and drugs ? Background checks for them ?

One of the National Socialists who frequent here I doubt could pass the test due to their need.

Spoken like one of those know-it-alls behind the gunshop counter?

The Soviets made use of the "mental health" ruse to imprison citizens who didn't drink the Kool-ade. Our dems would use it to harass and disarm any person who owned a firearm. Can you imagine your ex-hippie liberal mother-in-law having a way of putting you in jail for a few days, AND having your collection seized by an ex-hippie dem judge?

Here we have 'no alcohol' judgements and the police page in the paper shows lots of them, mostly being violated. And my neighbor's school teacher MiL filed a domestic on him when his wife wouldn't. Mental health professionals are quoted as saying it is more important to get people into treatment than penalizing them.

But more difficult, too. You can make a person in prison undergo therapy, but not a free citizen.

Yes, the USSR found that labeling dissidents "schizophrenic" and in need of "treatment" looked better than denouncing them as "Enemies of the People."
Allowing for the fact that I am a layman, I have little faith in the "mental health system". IMHO it has little objective and scientific grounding-cf. how they have "apologized" to the LGBTQ whatever crowd for have declared their problems a "disorder". Several psychiatrists were fooled by Hillside Strangler Kenneth Bianchi's excellent " multiple personality disorder" act and the wrangling and arguments between the various psychiatric "schools of thought"-Freudians, Jungists, whatever-that's their version of our caliber wars.
