Crazy People Are Dangerous
5th June 2021
The Other McCain provides an example.
Say hello to Everton Brown, a man from Baltimore, Maryland, seen here in a YouTube video from 2010, protesting at the White House, claiming that he was being targeted for harassment by the FBI.
Brown was not targeted by the FBI. He was crazy.And what do we know about crazy people, boys and girls? We can leave it to professionals to provide a clinical diagnosis — paranoid schizophrenia, most likely — but when someone organizes their entire life around the delusional belief that they are a victim of persecution, nothing prevents citizens from concluding this person is crazy….
In case you don’t recognize the name, he died in a gun battle with police on May 8 of this year, after killing three of his neighbors.
See how this works? The law apparently does nothing to protect you from crazy people, but “the confidentiality of health records” does prevent you from finding out how many times this kook got turned loose.
Would you be surprised to learn that the Maryland legislature this year rejected a bill that would have established clear guidelines for determining if a crazy person is actually dangerous?
If it does, you need to get out more. (Oh, and stay away from Blue states like Maryland.)
