Sigh. liberalism is a mental disorder; I see it on the sift every time I visit. There is no arguing with peeps who don't care about facts and let emotions rule them, instead of the other way around.

I don't know who is responsible for returning these ancient sifts to the queue, in order to join the lamestream media in trying to pin the murderous actions of a lone, mentally-ill vermin on Sarah Palin, the Tea Party or the Right. In a more perfect world you would feel shame, but bolsheviks eat, sleep and breathe lies. Twenty or even ten years ago you might have gotten away with it, but not now. Team Soros has no traction with the majority any more.


WHOA! Fuck that...Obama is Jimmy Carter...that's fucking Treason right there. Jimmy Carter not only participated by facilitated one of the worst Genocides by funding one in East Timor. You dare compare the two you sniffling little weasel?! Learn your history before you start comparing Hitler to Obama next you fucking asshole!

I'm not a nationalist at all, and I'm ever more inclined to consider patriotism and nationalism a damn mental disorder than anything else. Feeling all proud and somehow better than others because you fell out of your mother's vagina in a particular geographic location is completely stupid.

I'm all for unification of mankind, not the other way around. Unfortunately, very few people seem to think like that. Hell, I wouldn't mind if Spain and Portugal united as one country called Iberia. We have europe's oldest borders. That says a lot about your relationship with the neighbours.

Can Portugal and Spain's situation really be compared to Ireland and Greece's? I mean, yes we are also in a bit of trouble, but I truly believe the whole situation has been amplified by fucking speculators, messing with our credit ratings.

It certainly is amplified by speculations, for which the blame primarily rests with Merkel, if you ask me.
At current interest and growth rates, Portugal's national debt is noticably less threatening than Ireland's, but considering the agenda of cuts and savings, growth will remain abysmal or even turn negative, as is the case of Greece. Add the account deficit of 11.6% of GDP in the first half of 2010 and I'd say Portugal is quietly insolvent.
Spain on the other hand with its national debt of mere ~57% of GDP looks somewhat more stable, but look at the foreign exposure of the private sector. That's up to a cool €700B once the lid is taken off. And that would stretch the European Financial Stability Facility (EFSF) budget to the limit, a budget of only €750B. Which is why some argued that it should have been closer to €2T from the start.
And that's when a haircut is inevitable. Folks around Europe won't just accept massive cutbacks, causing massive unemployment and the following nightmares, just so investors can cash in on their situation. There's going to be some serious debt restructuring, including haircuts.
The real shit would begin if Italy, due to national debt and political instability, got sucked down as well. That'd be fun, yap.
So I'd say let's take Jean-Claude Juncker's advice and finally make it a proper union, not just a shared currency with opposing interests. Unfortunatly, my own bloody government won't play along with that.

that's right. psychopathy is a disorder of the personality (e.g., grandiosity, lying, callousness, lack of empathy, etc.), and psychosis is a constellation of mental disorders (e.g., delusions, hallucinations, flat affect, etc.). Thanks.

As a trained psychologist, I learned to spot the symptoms of psychopathy, which includes, among other things, the presence of schizophasia, also known as "word salad," (which is not to be confused with glossolalia, which is more akin to the Pentacostalist "speaking in tongues").

Ehm. You wrote psychopathy, but you must surely mean psychosis?

@NetRunner

I guess the point I was trying to make was that I have personally seen the system fail in the last 6 months. My brother was a fucked up mess mentally, and to this day is still irrational to the point that it's like trying to talk to a wall on many topics......especially topics that landed him in the court system. He's not quite as irate as he was, since he got the shit kicked out of him so bad in prison holding (contempt of court charge and was held until his trial could be completed and him sentenced, got probation). He was beaten by 5-8 guys, which they've only charged 2.....broke his shoulder bad enough that they thought he'd need surgery to repair it for the first couple days after it happened. He now has a virtually unusable arm, he can't lift it even as high as his should and there for awhile he couldn't grip anything or raise it beyond his waist. He was also knocked unconcious and had his head split open. And the kicker here was that prior to this they kept him in solitary due to his outbursts related to his mental condition. Within 24 hours of being put into the public areas of the prison, this happened to him. And they didn't press charges until he brought it up with his probation officer and they had no record of it when he mentioned it. They also withheld pain medications....and have now refused to pay medical expenses for what happened in jail...they've even billed him for the trip to and from the hospital for treatment.

Now....this incident could have been prevented a minimum of 3 months ago when they sent him to a mental facility in another city ...for evaluation. They told my parents he was going to be evaluated for a mental disorder (because this happened in the past and even though he went to months of treatment they never corrected it, just covered it). It turned out, the only thing he was being evaluated for was mental competency....does he know right from wrong. That's it. They didn't confirm if he was bipolar like previous diagnosed, or borderline personality disorder like previous diagnosed....or schizophrenic like they thought he was before bipolar was the diagnosis. So they took someone who had previously been diagnosed with a mental disorder, tested him for competency, held him in jail and on house arrest due to the mental disorder, and put then him on trial untreated for his mental disorder. He was put back into jail when he failed to take medications while on house arrest. What sane, rational thinking person would refuse to take a pill a day so he could stay in a house where he can eat regular food, sleep in a bed, take showers regularly..etc? And for that matter, what sane rational thinking person would chew out a judge and then refuse to take a piss test and land himself in jail in the first place when they were going to let him go bail free?

There was ONE, just ONE sheriff in the whole court building that took it upon himself seeing that my brother was not thinking properly...to try to get him in and out of the building without arresting him. All of the others wanted to take him down as soon as he left the court room...he told them no and that he would take responsibility for it. And from there on, everything else was an utter failure. The court system that could force treatment on him to get him back to normal didn't do it, and they are the only ones who can unless you get power of attorney over someone through a lengthy 6+ month process that costs a nice chunk of change.

There's just a near complete lack of division for criminals aside from the worst crimes such as rape, child crimes, and murder...after that..everyone is a criminal whether they truly understand their guilt or not or whether they can be "cured" or not. Personally after seeing what my brother has had happen to him, I think I'd rather be dead than go to prison on any charge......they don't foster anything but breakdown physical, mental, or emotional in those places.

@Shepppard

Yes there's some distancing from police, I have a cousin whose husband is a cop. He gave me a bad vibe for awhile, couldn't put my finger on it. Then one christmas get together I saw him talking about how cops can take down people easily by controlling the arm behind the back...and talking about how he could do it to anyone there no problem. So an uncle whose a short guy but strong as hell said I doubt it. So the cop tried, failed, made an excuse that he didn't want to hurt him...so the uncle said let's go outside and you can try all you like. That is teenage showoff kind of mentality, and that is not someone you want handling a gun and in charge of deciding what to do with you when they think they've got you on something. I'd guess his age to be late 20s maybe 30 at that time, uncle was probably late 40s or 50.

And a year or so after this, my brother got in trouble, fairly serious trouble. And the cousin's husband called up "to help him", gave him A LOT of bad advice under the guise of being family and wanting to help out. Told him to admit everything, didn't need a lawyer, the cops would take it easy on him...etc etc. An attempt to further his career as being "true blue" I guess. And that demonstrated his core character without any room for doubt left. If it had been his own son in that trouble, he would not have offered that advice...he'd have kept his mouth shut, got him a lawyer and went from there.

I can sympathize with cops who are there to actually protect people and put themselves in harms way to do so, but showboating, intention bad advice and attempted trickery, and no apparent loyalties or common decency is not someone who deserves respect as a human being. So they use the badge to demand respect....and that's where a lot of the trouble stems.....Im a cop so I should.......get free coffee.....get free donuts.....get free pizza........get a free pass......get the girl.......get money........get respect........get your undivided attention and obedience...... get my way.......

And my brother went on to develop a mental disorders and drug problems related to it. I've seen cops threaten him, ready to beat him down when he was not violent just mouthy and contrary. He got his arm and shoulder broken and damaged so badly while he was being held in jail for contempt of court (his mouthiness (mental disorder), not related to any charges) that he had to have a surgeon consult to see if it needed surgery to repair it. They withheld medications from him. Didn't bother to review tapes to catch the 5-8 guys who beat him down on his first day in with the population (they didn't hold him there due to his mental disorder, but all the sudden he was magically put in with the population). It took him pressing charges through a probation officer 2-3 weeks later to get any action rolling...and they still say he's responsible for paying all of the medical bills he incurred due to them placing him in with the people who beat his ass.

I can see why people hate anything to do with the justice system.....he had it bad and all he needed was someone to force medical treatment on him. Other people have had it worse, and no one steps up and takes on some personal responsibility to make sure people are not being abused....because it's not the way things are done. They are there to inflict maximum penalties on people through deception, subterfuge, and basically any way afforded to them. The only people who are not submitted to THIS system are rich, well lawyered citizens, powerful citizens, and close cop-relatives (parents, siblings, children).

For anyone who's interested, the mental disorder that he's exhibiting is part of a subsection of paraphilias called frotteurism.


The healthiest thing this man can do is use Sublimation and become a part of some sort of sex show. Until then he's going to keep running into problems with the law.

Some other Paraphilias:
Pedophilia - sexual urges towards children
Exhibitionism - recurrent desire to expose genitals to a stranger
Voyeurism - sexual pleasure from watching other who are naked, grooming, or having sex.
Sadism - sexual pleasure derived from others' pain
Masochism - sexual pleasure derived from being abused or dominated
Fetishism - sexual focus on objects (transvestite falls in here)
Frotteurism - male rubbing of genitals against fully clothed woman to achieve orgasm, subways/buses (what is apparent in this video)
Zoophilia - animals preferred in sexual fantasies or practices
Coprophilia - combining sex and defecation
Urophilia - combining sex and urination
Necrophilia - preferred sex with cadavers
Hypoxyphilia - altered state of consciousness secondary to hypoxia while experiencing orgasm. (Autoerotic asphyxiation, etc.)

First of all, what makes you guys think he's got a mental disorder? For all you know, he just thinks he's a gangsta thug, stickin it to The Man. Although, temporary insanity will probably be his excuse and he'll get let off during his trial. Then he'll be free to just go off and do some other horrible shit to people. Some of those people cheering him on are probably his homies, knowing full well he's not insane.

I don't know if it's training or personal experience, but there has been a plethora of police officers, sheriffs, etc that have only been stopped from escalating situations involving my brother by my father or another police officer who is less gung ho to kick it up to 10 on the action meter.

My brother has something that is obviously wrong with his mental state, it was believed it was drug related (marijuana specifically...possibly laced) but after he spent over a month in jail for outbursts in court and during drug testing he was worse. My parents have tried to get him treated but it's remarkably difficult to force an adult into treatment they refuse, all it takes is a no from the patient at any point and the doctor will stop whether they agree or not....he was even released from psychological evaluation holds by different doctors than the ones who placed them (72 hour hold suddenly becomes 4 hours type deal). The police agencies would rather lock him up for months on end than send him to a facility to force treatment on him. That said, this had some situations where the majority of police basically wanted to kick his ass when they got involved and were restrained by my father or another police officer.

One situation was where he snapped for the first time, he wasn't hurting anyone but he did smash a cell phone and lock himself in the house. From the story multiple people called police, my mother, a younger brother, and neighbors. They showed up, he had locked himself in the house. My dad shows up and tells them to wait outside and he'll get him to come out peacefully, they tell my dad to move aside and that they are going to have to kick in the door to "deal with him". At this point my dad tells them "You're not kicking in my damn door, so either you leave or I get him to come out." They attempt to kick in the door anyway, leaving a big black mark down the door from their boots. Basically they were ready to go in and rough him up on the notion that he was inside murdering everyone....even though you could see his figure on the other side of the glass door holding the lock so it couldn't be unlocked.


Second, he was at the courthouse...this would be after he's had the law called on him multiple times for acting irrationally...trying to get someone to make it so my parents could force treatment on him to try to get him thinking more clearly. He's in court for drug possession, he rants at the judge, she let's him go. One out of half a dozen police officers there tells the others that he'll handle it, because the rest of them want to tackle and subdue him thinking he's high on something. They take him over to be drug tested by the judge's orders, he refuses like he does everything else...the one officer who took responsibility for him stopped them from taking him down yet again. He called and got the judge's permission to arrest him for the outbursts and refusal....and they stick him in jail. They attempt to get him a mental evaluation, he's sent to a mental evaluation facility. So my brother lucks out and gets an officer who actually tries to get him the help he needs through the judge where the rest of the officers wanted to tackle him and lock him up. But then they fuck up yet again, send him to be tested for competency but nothing else. So he still has an undiagnosed and untreated mental disorder, but they find him competent because he understands why he is on trial. They gladly gloss over the fact that the only medication he will willing take is marijuana or pill form equivalents of THC called marinol or something like that for cancer patients....which they won't give him...and he's on trial for drug possession. No druggie in their right mind is going to ask to be treated with an illegal substance when that's whats keeping him from being out on the streets where he can get more drugs.

He got put on house arrest after all this (not even for the drug charges because he has never been sentenced on this yet due to all this competency stuff and how slow the court is). He was court ordered to seek treatment and follow doctor's orders....which of course my brother won't take any medication but what he demands. So back into jail he goes. Except this time they stick him in general population...he was there for about 2 days before a couple of guys beat the hell out of him. They dragged him out of bed off a top bunk and initial evaluations were that he'd need surgery to fix his arm, but they've changed their opinion on that since. He won't admit to getting beat up, says he fell. Even though investigators are certain he was beaten.

So he's in medical holding while everyone hopes they finally force treatment on him to get him straightened out. But I suspect they put him on trial for the drug charges untreated/undiagnosed and let him continue to bring suffering upon my parents as they try to get him treated......which the law won't allow them to force treatment on him unless they take guardianship of him etc etc......and they won't help you with that either.

Basically what Im saying is, cops in general aren't the problem. It's just a general inability or disdain for doing anything that doesn't follow procedure. Chances are the guy who was killed in this news story is just as messed up as my brother, and if my father hadn't been there to mitigate the police response or a specific officer hasn't been there in court...my brother could have been killed in a similar fashion. I've tried to talk to him about this crap he thinks, he's just totally irrational and it pisses you off fast trying to talk to him about anything....so if someone thought he was dangerous I could see them progressing to lethal force if he acted even remotely aggressive. It ain't right, but I suspect it's what they are taught or what is expected out of them 99% of the time and if they don't react in that manner and an officers gets hurt..they'd probably be in deeper shit than if they shot the guy. It doesn't make it any better, but it seems like a pretty simplistic view to take. And mental disorders are only going to increased and worsen as the economic problems continue.

What hope is there for anyone over age 25 who believes shithole cuba and the USA are 'tied' in health care quality?

Liberalism is a mental disorder.

@MilkmanDan, I think the DSM method of diagnosing mental disorders causes a lot of "sort of" diagnoses (almost everyone can answer yes to one or two or three of the questions for any diagnosis). You can just keep in mind that it's only really relevant to talk about labels like that if it's pathological, rather than just a quirk.

Some parents are perhaps a bit more eager to put a diagnostic label on their child, because it explains the confusing behavior of e.g. a moody teenager. Same goes for "is my baby using drugs?".

It might be healthier to be aware that no one behaves exactly like the textbooks say they ought to, and that doesn't have to be a reason to worry.

Believing something unprovable is factual without admitting the possibility that it's not is some sort of mental disorder. Some call it faith, apparently.
