Marine Arrested

Scary stuff. Do we live in a free country now?

 

Well ....

Some here may accuse you of scaremongering .... I however, agree. I only wonder how muych time we have left before your words manifest!

 

He was institutionalized for "Oppositional Defiance Disorder (ODD)"? That's the height of ignorance on the part of whatever "mental health professional" decided he needed to be hospitalized.

ODD is a childhood maladjustment disorder!!! It is never diagnosed in an adult. It is characterized by the frequent occurrence of at least four of the following behaviors:

• losing temper
• arguing with adults
• actively defying or refusing to comply with the requests or rules of adults
• deliberately doing things that will annoy other people
• blaming others for his or her own mistakes or misbehavior
• being touchy or easily annoyed by others
• being angry and resentful
• being spiteful or vindictive

If that list looks to you like it should simply fall under the category "being a kid," you're pretty much correct. I believe it to be a largely "invented" disorder that can be used to drag kids into counseling when their biggest problem is boredom, lack of challenging curriculae at school, and poor parenting.

It is typically seen in behavioral disordered children in late childhood to early adolescence. Diagnosing it in an adult is sheer stupidity, and obviously done for the sole purpose of silencing the man.

 

Seems that kinda covers many on the board, should we all be jailed? :thumbs:
