or go through some financial issues and cant afford them
i know rehabilitation is a good thing generally, but with murder idk
The week following the attack, Greyhound Canadaannounced it was pulling a series of nationwide advertisements which included the slogan, "There's a reason you've never heard of bus rage."

haha yea i saw that
Yeah so from the looks of it it was a staggered release
yea he was having day trips pretty early
As far as meds go I'm not sure if they're subsidized or covered in that instance
it was basically like going away to summer camp lol
yea essentially im not convicned that hes fully rehabilitated
if meds are the one thing that separates him from going postal
Well the way that not criminally responsible and psych eval/rehab work is that it all depends on rate of recovery
if it was a different crime, then i could be persuaded
yea i get that
So you could be in for 6 or so years like this dude, or in for life
we have the same thing here
Which is more common
but usually its life
Mhm
just in a mental facility instead of an actual prison
Sure
prove temporary insanity and only get 6 years instead of life in prison. america doesnt take too kindly to that
Well it's actually probably a matter of confirmation bias
They did an experiment once where they had perfectly healthy people pretend to be mentally ill for a week, enter a mental hospital at the start of said week and then go back to normal behaviour after it
And the staff were recording their normal behaviour as symptomatic
oh yea i think i watched a ted talk on psychopaths about something similar
a catch 22 basically
Psychology in general is in this sort of middle ground
Where people either tend to put too much or too little faith in it
yea thats pretty typical of the soft sciences
I think it's especially annoying for psych because it backs up onto neuroscience but is still somehow attached to mysticism
thats similar to mathematics and philosophy
on the one end you have propositional logic, boolean algebra, set theory, and on the other you have crap like solipsism
I have met far too many solipsists in Seattle ;_;
It is very popular in the tech industry
haha especially after a fresh batch coursing through your veins
is it really? with techies?
Yes, it is very popular with techies, not a majority opinion, but you will find far more techies into it than the general populace.
thats a trip. and here i thought it was some esoteric mind fuck for philosophy majors
I think part of it is a way to abnegate responsability in not partaking in the real world more, because everything might only exist in my head.
