A Tom Stoppard play.
In Mind Trick, I mention how Psychology has been manipulated by the liberals/collectivists to enslave us. Here is a case in point.
EGBDF is a unique combo of play and symphony, rarely performed. I saw Patrick Stewart and some of the cast of STTNG perform it in Chicago on Easter Sunday 1993.
The play has an Alexander Ivanov imprisoned in a Soviet mental institution. He won't be released until he admits his statements against the government are caused by a mental disorder that doesn't exist. He is housed with another 'patient' named Ivonov who is delusional and believes he has a symphony orchestra under his direction. He also has a son, Sasha, who is seen in a classroom with a teacher who is trying to convince him of his father's 'illness'.
It's an interesting blend of indictment of the Soviet (and others) system and symphonic music. I'd like to try performing it myself.
Now, let's get something out of the way.
Psikhushka is Russian slang for 'psychiatric hospital'. They did and still do exist in other countries as well.
It has been common practice for collectivists, liberals etc to label those who disagree with them 'nuts'. Of course, I believe the opposite is true (I will talk about how liberalism is a disease soon).
There have been attempts even here in the US, to pass laws 'certifying' certain people unfit to be armed, and that God centered conservative upbringing is 'sick'. These have met with some success.
For instance, one could have most types of counseling brought up in a competency hearing concerning firearms ownership. Woe if you have marital problems or just want to talk about anything that bothers you with a psychologist, psychiatrist, various social workers, etc. The same holds true for vets coming from war zones who are debriefed and assigned counseling.
I want to make clear as well that the play is endorsed by Amnesty International. They seem to do some good work against dictators etc. But they look the other way sometimes and have too left leaning tendencies.
Yet the play can be used for the 'right' reasons ie, to expose said mental health laws and to start people seeing that this old Republic is well compromised and in danger of being destroyed (Some claim it already is. I say we can reconstruct/restore it.).
Should guns be kept out of the hands of 'dangerous' people? How do you define that? Be specific, then we'll talk.
It's a slippery slope when fingers are pointed. Of course, delusional people should not have guns. But it's the DEFINITION of problems that should be clarified.
Self regulation is still the best way to go. When people fall through the cracks, then the antis dance in the blood. It's not common but happens. Bad things happen to good people.
It will happen even less when we actually run the government again. and those who work in mental health are concerning themselves with just that.
Shrinks as agents of the state are the dangerous ones. When they serve the people and are trying to help people help themselves, they serve the Republic.
Yes those that are a denger to themselves and others should be put away. But again I say CLARIFY the danger.
I have dealt with severely mentally ill folks. Some should not see the light of day, ie, serial killers, 'pedophiles', rapists etc. Many I consider evil. Not a 'pro' term but real just the same (another post on that soon too.).
But to say we are nuts for having guns, I say we are nuts NOT to be armed with those trying to enslave us pointing the finger. To try to rewrite the Bill of Rights and even eliminate it is beyond nuts. THAT is evil!
Dangerous gunowners? Only to those who try to take our Freedom (And, of course, those who try to rob our money, lives and sanctity as humans.). The Founders were labelled as criminals by a criminal government. We are there again.
Best be busy pointing that out.
As for 'helping' others, they can only be helped when they realize they need it. And the liberals etal categorically refuse to admit that.
Let us help them by moving them aside so we might Restore the Republic!

Evelyn Weed's Speed Mnemonics!
ST. PAUL, Minn., October 10, 2007-Hamline University has suspended a
student after he sent an e-mail
suggesting that the Virginia Tech
massacre might have been stopped if students had been allowed to carry
concealed weapons on campus. Student Troy Scheffler is now required to
undergo a mandatory "mental health evaluation" before being allowed to
return to school. Scheffler, who was suspended without due process just
two days after sending the e-mail, has turned to the Foundation for
Individual Rights in Education (FIRE) for help.
