So, how did we deal with those issues BEFORE the mindfux came along? People just sucked it in and went on with their lives. Those that were truly insane were locked up and key thrown away. Growing up in an area that didn't place any stock in mental illnesses when it came to criminal offenses, and looking around at similar countries, I see that there way fewer instances of people trying to cop a break by claiming mental illness. Why? Because it does them no good. Fewer people also use mental illness as an excuse. They suck it up and get along as best as they can. Actually, they do quite well too. Michael Fay tried what I call the Classic American Defense when he crossed the law in Singapore. "I have a mental illness. ADD". Court suggested he seek help AFTER they whipped him. Bill C had to beg to get 2 strokes off the 6. What did he do on return? Almost kill himself freebasing cocaine.

Please explain the over diagnosed "mental disease" ADD or is it ADHD in kids? Gathering of data in psych is scientific. Application of data varries from practitioner to practitioner. Lets see now, the average couple brings their ill behaved kid to mindfuk to see what is wrong with him/her. Mindfuk tells them that the kid is a good kid but needs treatment and what not. Mindfuk makes money. Same clown tells them that it is because of bad parenting and the parents are to blame. Parents shop for a more soothing opinion and said clown loses money.

Here is one of my favorites. Woman gave her kids a rock party. One of them is going to require care for the rest of his life from brain damage. 2 are dead. All because she was told that god wanted her to do it. Prosecution wanted a trial and hired 2 mindfux to say she was sane. Defense, not to be outdone, hired 2 to say she was insane.

Add that to the fact that I convinced a mindfuk at the age of 10 that I would be "hurt" more by doing art classes than not to the point that I was permanently exempted from doing any art classes and perhaps you can see why I have such a disdain of their "craft". I equate it to slightly better than voodoo based on the fact that their data was gathered scientifically. As far as I see it, psych is just an excuse for whatever it is they are wanting an excuse from. Think the Iraqis are going to claim "My child was damaged by watching SH swing"? Doubtful. The kid is going to go on with his life.

How so? Prison is also a penalty. Fines are also a penalty. I don't cheat or steal because I don't want to go to prison. You looked at me funny this morning and I wanted to hit you. However, the fact that you might call the cops and have me arrested makes me think twice. The list goes on. Lets face it, any penalty will not deter everyone. But that said, it deters most. Somebody will always figure out they have an angle that will work.

Another affected party might be the victims family. You killed my son, wife, etc, etc. Now you are going to swing. You bet it will make me feel better. Won't bring my so and so back but it is revenge. If not, I would have appealed against the penalty at your trial.

On that note, What about the speeding penalty? Who is affected by my speeding? Nobody died. Would you be for the speeding penalty ONLY if someone died too? What about other fines for other offenses?

But I figure you would rather avoid that. So, let's not dream about it.
Thinkin of the old show "I dream of Jeanie" make me wonder. What sort of dreams do you have of Bot?

Did you mean "shot" or "****"? Not sure how "shut" works in that sentence.

Yes, I too was traumatized. Now I will go on wondering why they didn't have a better camera on the thing, why they had footage of the steps at some point and most importantly, why they let SH's rope be that long. I mean, would it have hurt to have the floor open from under him and he goes maybe a foot or two thru the hole and stay there till he is dead?
