A Whack Job To You, But A Son Or Brother To Someone Else
-
In Connecticut, a guy was ranting in the middle of the street, then climbed a pole, grabbed a live wire, and plummeted 35 feet to the ground. They don't know why he did all that, but if we assume it was because of mental illness, the question arises as to what can be done with someone like that. What can his family do, what should the government do, IS there anything anyone can do? In Florida, they have the Baker Act where the cops can involuntarily commit someone -- is THAT the answer? Or could that lead to the government throwing people into asylums who don't belong there? What's the answer? (New Haven Register)
