ACLU Killed Connecticut Forcible
Institutionalization Law That Might
Have Prevented Killings

While we’re having that whole conversation about wadding up the Bill of Rights and throwing it into the trash, why don’t we have a brief conversation about what might have actually prevented the shooting by dealing with the mental illness of the shooter. Let’s talk ACLU instead of NRA. Connecticut is one of only SIX states in the U.S. that doesn’t have a type of “assisted outpatient treatment” (AOT) law (sometimes referred to as “involuntary outpatient treatment”). There’s no one standard for these types of laws,

The Arizona killer ought to have been committed. The Aurora killer ought to have been committed. Same with this killer.

There are many instances where deranged individuals are walking the streets just waiting to harm an innocent, unsuspecting person.

Wonder just whose rights are being protected.

The damage to our nation by the ACLU over the years is inconceivable

No wonder the talking heads are trying to shut talk down if its about anything else than gun control. The left set the wheels in motion 40 years ago for the demise of morals and decency in our society. Nature hates a vacuum. When good goes, evil takes its place. Everytime.

It´s an undeniable fact of life libs and you can´t change it no matter how much you want to deny your culpability.

As I wore before, years ago ,the ACLU and others went before the Surpreme court and got a ruleing that in effect shut down all of the insane asylums because they violated the patients civil rights now many of the homelessare mental patients who woud be better off inside the old hospitals.

Let all those who are surprised that the ACLU was on the wrong side of this issue raise their hands.

Though it is not widely known, our friends, the liberals and libertarians have not only made involuntary hospitalization of the seriously mental ill as difficult as possible - they have done their best to make their treatment when hospitalized as hard as possible. They have devoted themselves to the micro-management and regulation of such matters as forcible medication, physical restraints, and behavioral seclusion for the violently agitated. Very few of such social theoreticians and legal do-gooders know any more about mental illness and its treatment than what they see on TV and in the movies. It is entirely a matter of abstract rights and principles for most of them, typical feel good liberal fantasy ideology. Their seriously uninformed agenda dovetails nicely with the need of the private insurance industry and most politicians to spend as little money as possible on inpatient treatment.

It cannot be stated too often that Ronald Reagan as governor of California had nothing, repeat nothing to do with any of this - not unless implementing the most enlightened and expert opinion of his time is counted against him. What he did in California was done in every state in the union, subsequent to the disastrous Federal Community Mental Health Centers Act of 1963, which set the stage for the elimination of adequate institutional care for the chronically mentally ill. It seemed like a good idea at the time. It could have worked as planned, too - had the really mentally ill people been just a tad more rational and therefore cooperative with their recommended community outpatient treatment.

Thank you ACLU. You are responsible for the deaths of 27 people, 20 of which were children. Hope you feel good about it.

Why don´t the so called progressives plan a march on the ACLU instead of the NRA?!

The phonies at the ACLU are just a small part of the hypocrites tha allow MENTAL problems to roam around freely...we have THREE STATES that allow their citizens to freely and LEGALY use halucinogens knowing that it alters thinking, reasoning, and actions...but this is OK. How will the anti gun president, the media and the numerous congresspeople handle the killings by people roaming around getting high...will they be held accountable because the weed was legal??? I bet their victims will remain dead after all is said and done...

HIGHLANDS, NJ — New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie said Monday that President Obama "has kept every promise he´s made" about helping the state recover from Hurricane Sandy. Speaking on MSNBC´s "Morning Joe" program on the 6-month anniversary of the deadly storm, the Republican governor said presidential politics were the last thing on his mind as he toured storm-devastated areas with Obama last fall. "The president has kept every promise he´s made," said Christie, widely considered a potential candidate for the republican presidential nomination in 2016. "I think he´s done a good job. He kept his word."

In the wake of this week´s false AP tweet about explosions at the White House, Bloomberg´s Jared Keller and Evan Applegate offer a look at how "false tweets" can move markets, sending stocks spiking or crashing in an instant. "The AP hack highlights the potential pitfalls of relying on social networks for tradable information, but false tweets have been affecting markets and companies for the past few years," they write. "In some cases the impact of false tweets can be immediate. On August 6, 2012: A Twitter account claiming to be that of Russian Interior Minister Vladimir Kolokoltsev

Tamerlan Tsarnaev was on welfare, sponsored by tax payers. Tsarnaev, now dead, is suspected of bombing the Boston Marathon last week. "Marathon bombings mastermind Tamerlan Tsarnaev was living on taxpayer-funded state welfare benefits even as he was delving deep into the world of radical anti-American Islamism, the Herald has learned," reports the Boston Herald. "State officials confirmed last night that Tsarnaev, slain in a raging gun battle with police last Friday, was receiving benefits along with his wife, Katherine Russell Tsarnaev, and their 3-year-old daughter.

“He looks like me,” my son, Shibli, 10, said as we looked at a photo of a young Dzhokhar Tsarnaev flash upon the TV screen Friday night. Indeed, with his innocent eyes and rumple of dark curly hair, he did. As an American, a Muslim, a mother, and an aunt to a nephew on the cusp of manhood, my heart just broke for yet another boy lost in our Muslim community, taking with him the lives of others. Enough, enough, enough, I say, with the CYA—Cover Your A**—strategy in our Muslim communities.

Former Weather Underground radical Kathy Boudin — who spent 22 years in prison for an armored-car robbery that killed two cops and a Brinks guard — now holds a prestigious adjunct professorship at Columbia University’s School of Social Work, The Post has learned. Boudin, 69, this year won another academic laurel — being named the Sheinberg Scholar-in-Residence at NYU Law School, where last month she gave a lecture on “the politics of parole and re-entry.” Boudin’s bounce-back into respectability after her 2003 parole comes to light a week before the release of Robert Redford’s movie

This is a real thing that is really happening. For real.

The public got its first look Thursday at Lois Lerner, who has gone from faceless IRS bureaucrat to the face that launched what feels like 1,000 congressional hearings and conspiracy theories. But it was only a brief sighting since she didn´t stay long at a House hearing to further probe her role in how some IRS workers came to target conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status. (Snip)She did make a short statement to declare her innocence, however. Lerner´s motivation was more transparent than much of what the IRS has done in connection with this controversy. She was determined to

When you get right down to it, the political targeting and stalling of tax-exempt applications by the IRS was an effort to defund the Tea Party. Rick Santelli, one of the Tea Party founders and my CNBC colleague, was the first to make this point. I’ve taken it a step further: The IRS was taking the Tea Party out of play for the 2012 election, as it looked to avoid a repeat of 2010 and another Tea Party landslide.There are a lot of numbers out there.

President Obama on Thursday nominated Victoria Nuland, a State Department official involved in the editing of the administration´s talking points on Benghazi, to be the next assistant secretary of state for European and Eurasian affairs. Nuland, a career foreign service officer who was until recently State´s top spokesperson, had long been expected to be nominated the post to replace Philip Gordon, who Obama picked to serve as Middle East coordinator for the National Security Council. Nuland´s nomination -- which requires Senate confirmation -- could come under scrutiny from Republicans who see her as playing a central role in shaping

What was a DHS agent doing at the San Jose Tea Party protest? (snip) they weren´t just spying on us in San Jose and monitoring us in San Francisco, they were watching us throughout the entire state

Conservative radio host Mark Levin is very skeptical of the idea that President Obama had absolutely no idea about the IRS tea party targeting before the story broke in the news mere weeks ago. Levin declared adamantly that it is a “flat-out, bald-faced lie” that Obama didn’t know beforehand, citing prior reports by a few conservative news outlets picking up on the news well before the 2012 presidential election. Levin said, “I don’t believe for two seconds that Obama wasn’t aware of this.”

Anthony Weiner’s New York mayoral candidacy was only made more improbable today after he revealed that he visited a Houston psychiatric facility following his resignation from Congress in 2011. Haunted by scandal surrounding his sexually explicit online communications with women, the Democratic former congressman sought treatment for his compulsive behavior from mental health professionals at the Gabbard Center. According to its website, the facility provides “3-day outpatient psychiatric evaluation,” particularly to “professionals who are in personal or professional crises.” While Weiner did not disclose
