To some of us, someone with mental problems is nuts and has to be tazed to get under control.

I never said I liked it or disliked it. I only said you were being age-discriminatory towards that lady. And THAT...is the exact definition of age discrimination! You seem to forget, once again, davie, that you don't answer for "some of us". Don't draw others into your hate-filled and discriminatory vortex. Thanks for showing us all another of your guilty traits. |

It looks like a couple of the boys here don't share your views.
I really believe if they had left the nurse si down beside the victim for a few minutes and calmed her down and quietly said, honey, we have to change your cloths, and gotten the scary looking men out of the area, no confrontation would have occurred. Maybe the jail needs a nurse with additional training but this could have worked. Yes, msmal, that can work with someone who does not have "mental problems" but hardly probable for someone whose brain functions MUCH differently. Some of these poor souls have gone to theaters and killed innocent persons, some have gone to schools and shot innocent persons so do you honestly think if someone sat down beside them and talked calmly that would be the answer? Do you seriously believe they would ditch those plans? Please tell us that is not what you think. |

Trust me Mal, without going into great details your idea of how things "might" have worked are far beyond reality. I have been to one of those when the nurse AND a social worker tried to calm the "mentally disturbed" person down. Please do not make bold suggestions without any knowledge of what you speak. I would imagine the all the people involved would have much rather the situation have not happened like it did but unfortunately there are times when calling a "timeout" does not work.
I still think and old woman (or young woman if you prefer BS) would react much differently, and more calmly, if approached by a female nurse who seemed to be a caring individual and asked to take her cloths off than if approached by a menacing looking male, with a weapon in his hand and asked to do the same thing. If you think otherwise, I think you're in denial. |
