NO NO NO NO

The reason why all of the mental health institutes closed at the end of the 1970's is primarily ONE SUPREME COURT DECISION. Neither the democrats or the republican want to take on a solution. The republicans don't want to spend the money and it will take a lot of money to repair the system and the democrats want to attack gun rights so they don't want to touch it. I firmly believe the democrats are reveling in the type of thing that just happened in Florida and now everyone is talking about creating more gun laws. They are laughing all the way to the voting booth.

For liberals and anarchists, power and control is opium, selling envy is the fastest and easiest way to get it. TRR. American conservative. Never trust a white liberal. Malcom X Current NRA member.

The old mental health system is akin to the modern day FBI. Incompetent, cruel and self serving. That doesn’t mean both aren’t necessary components in a civilized society, they just need a massive top to bottom overhaul, the VA might get in on the house cleaning too.

Well now is the perfect time, because the mental health system is practically non-existent.


The only thing worse than a liberal is a liberal that thinks they're a conservative.
