Mass Shooting in Lewiston Maine

[B-Man]

Sadly, schizophrenia isn’t taken seriously until something bad happens.

 

Our laws have been constructed such that if their psychotic symptomology ends while institionalized, they are released on medications...the patients stops taking the meds and the symptoms reoccur. 

The psychiatrists and the legal officials and the public has to realize that chronic relapsers are in a different class of disease process and may need to be institutionalized for much longer periods...there need to be safeguards against political oppression using faked mental disease charges, however

I know. But is that why the ones like you are such sycophants? Is it religious fear? I always assumed it was just lack of independence, general subservience, low iq, apathy, helplessness, executive functioning disorder. 
 

Fear probably explains a lot of the behaviors too. 
 

thanks. I finally learned something today about you and some of your folks intrinsic drivers. 

Buddy you’ve never worked in government before if you actually fear them. 
 

As a proud bureaucrat I can safely say that incompetence is a problem, not malevolence.

I have solutions. Many people have solutions. The solutions have all been dismissed as “anti-constitutional” 

Agreed. I’m all for more institutionalization with proper oversight so we don’t have another Suffer the Little Children situation.

well, there is your problem, son.

 

if your solutions are not legal than they are not solutions, are they, bucko?

I saw this unfold real time at work. It took some concerned folks going above and beyond to reach out to family to address it after several concerned observers reacted. It was exactly what you say. Stopped taking meds and started spiraling down a paranoid rabbit hole communicating very troubling and unhinged ideas to numerous people.

Sounds good, looking forward to more mentally ill domestic abusers killing 20+ people then. Thanks Republicans!

 

By the way, they’re absolutely legal solutions if you aren’t a staunch originalist.

Expensive incompetence is absolutely the whole problem - when did I ever indicate otherwise? 
 

you being a bureaucrat makes  all the sense in the world- a sycophantic contributor to the theft and misappropriation of working people’s income.

You live in daily fear of the government. Didn’t deny it at all. 
 

I’ll give you the same response I give the communists - I do my job because I have specialized technical skills to guide development. Let me know when the “workers of the world” ever want to get off their lazy asses and do it.

You are a few shades below dim, aren't you?

 

let's break this down as if it was ManningCast.

 

you open up with sarcasm which is a waste of time, particularly to me since so far i have thus engaged in reasonable conversation with you - something i do not have to do. so, please, don't waste time, mine or yours.

 

you then make a triumphant statement that is overbroad about mentally ill, domestic abuse murderers. this statement could be saved if you proffered any thought, even if not original, to solve this issue.

 

in your final statement you suggest there are legal solutions available but be sure to get that last little lick in to anyone who would dare challenge your superior arguments and intellect. you don't offer those possibilities or say much more besides creating an effect equal to a moan or grunt. your mouth may be open and making sounds but they're not reasonable to add to a conversation.

 

so, i propose that you're pretty awful at this and offer you a chance to try again. please, do better.  do much, much better.

 

good luck.

lol sure pal. I live in annoyance of how dysfunctional incompetent, useless and wasteful the government is, how much of my money they steal and misuse to no avail, while simultaneously deluded as you well illustrate into thinking they have a clue about how the real world operates. 
 

 The government drives the innovation 😂 is your vastly impressive technical aptitude wasting my money, operating a stapler, selecting the right color paint for urban dumpsters? 

 

now that we know you’re inefficient and incompetent professional leach, I’m sure your solutions work perfectly in the vacuum of your own mind.

Presser coming up soon... it's on FOX news if anyone is interested.

The whole system is designed to create these clowns. The more clowns, the more

control the bad guys get.

Im not trying to argue, there’s nothing to argue about. 18 people are dead because a mentally unstable psychopath had easy access to a high powered rifle. I believe this is the only country on the planet where this happens regularly and we don’t even try to address the problem because of a bizarre reading of the 2nd Amendment that prevents even a national gun registry from seeing the light of day. So, here we are once again.

Right… if only there were some paperwork and a database in this maniacs way. That would have prevented all of this.

If he was registered on said database, then it flags when he gets checked into the mental ward and his guns are taken away. Simple. 
 

Shouldn’t have had them in the first place with his DV charge but hey.

So the state supports you, and you support the state.

 

And are desperate to be owe of the owners or "controllers" in this new 15 minute city future.  Not stuck in it.

So he's crazy and is allowed to have a gun. Good job NRA 

 

Again, the NRA didn't shoot anyone. If he had prior inpatient history, he should not have been legally allowed to possess a firearm. 

 

How that's on the NRA, let me know.

Interesting.  I never considered this aspect. 

I am sure there are sheepdogs amongst us.  

 

But the majority just want it for the last line.  IE, when your hiding waiting to be slaughtered like all these stories we read about.  instead of just praying, one has a chance.

 

Most would run, hide, barricade. (like the FBI and DHS train to) but after that.  it's nice to have something but prayers.

 

Guessing many in Maine are doing just that right now. shelter in place but got the gun handy.

 

 

 

 

 

crazy huh

I wonder if his military training was bit more than firearms safety instructor.

 

evade and escape, multiple targets.  

 

 

 

He was a petroleum specialist. 

 

That's basically someone who hauls fuel and pumps it. People who are elite soldiers aren't in that MOS. He would also not have any other training that would be anything special... at least with the US Army.
