Call to de-fund police departments.

Warning shots seem like the neighborly thing to do, but can get you into more trouble than shooting someone.

Everyone Google Tony Timpa.
I'm sure you've heard the term '5150' before?
If not; it is a slang term the police use when dealing with a call of a possible psychotic person.
A paranoid schizophrenic going into fully delusional psychotic mental state.

I've knew someone very close to me many years ago that had an issue like this, and the episode revealed itself when this person was taking meth w/o my knowledge. She was taken to the county mental facility and only then was I told of the particulars of the circumstances at that point. She had threatened both me and herself with a kitchen knife because she could no longer see reality and determine friend from foe at all. Her speech and actions were not consistent with a sane and rational person. Carrying on with a full conversation and looking towards people that were not even present.

In the case of Tempa, little is known as to how much cocaine was ingested or for how long over a period of time this person had been using. That person had called the police themselves for help. Died because the police was dealing with someone that was a danger to themselves and others and was restrained and had become violent.

People using cocaine can have sudden death. A benign or otherwise un-diagnosed heart arrhythmia can be vastly exacerbated with cocaine as the dosage is increased. In such a physical and mental state, it is not clear that this person was a victim of their own drug abuse, or as a result of restraint. Or both.

But one thing that you can absolutely be sure of, that the media will always 'run home to mama' . . .

5150 is a California law code for the temporary commitment of people with psychiatric conditions that make them a danger to others or themselves. No slang, its a real designation.
 
I agree 100% with what you're saying but I don't believe the BLM side thinks they are doing anything wrong.
The problem is across the board I bel

One thing to remember is that all of us ride a fine line between sanity and insanity.

Drugs will definitely push one to the edges or worse the wastelands of insanity.

Except for marijuana.

If/when a person uses particular drugs, and if they had any any asymptomatic schizophrenia due to their genetics, then it is possible it can go full blown. That situation I faced was just that.

She hid her drug use until she just popped one day - it was just right out of the blue. Not that I was or am ignorant of how people behave when on drugs, quite the opposite. I had to deal with all kinds of people and situations and could almost always tell they were on drugs and what kind of drugs they were using. The psychiatrist had to tell me that she was schizophrenic, as she never did. She just seemed as normal as anyone else to me. She had to be put on a very low maintenance dose of Lithium.

Not the first time I dealt with psychotic individuals. They are not always violent or dangerous, they can also be very quiet and withdrawn. People using LSD are often in and out of a psychotic state, and have seen that more than a few times too.

But I wouldn't go as far as saying that pot can't have a bad reaction with a few people. Depends on their schizophrenia, as some have more imbalanced brain chemistry more than others.

Schizophrenia is best diagnosed ahead of time, so that the person can know their limits and seek professional help and the proper medications. It is not their fault nor should they be looked down upon.

I agree 100% with you my friend as far as people are unique in their state of mind, trust me I get it I have an ex wife.

But I will say that the full spectrum of cannabinoids is an almost cure all. I use full spectrum oils for pain and it helps better than any pain pill has and I don't have to be on narcotics. My wife also uses oil for headaches and pretty much anything else ladies deal with... Roger? Lol

Living where i did there were these gatherings called barterfaires. They are hippie parties on private land usually out in the middle of nowhere. Lots of chemicals would show up. I learned a lot from a well known lsd chemist who would attend these barterfaires to react test the drugs on site to make sure they were real and what the seller says it is whether its mdma, xtc, lsd, 2cB, 2cE ect. I worked the medical tent/tipi helping tripping hippies. I found quite a few people who cant tollerate thc and the high concentrated thc found at these festivals caused a lot of medical issues. Needless to say we did keep a straight jacket on hand and had to use it a few times.
Let me see if i can find a video from barterfaire. The beat up blue s10 was my wood truck for 7 years. I am not a contestant just part of the audience. Im not a fan of nos. Gives me a headache
Welcome to NOS games...
