[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]After decades in the criminal justice system and very extensive experience with seriously mentally ill people, I can share that statistically speaking it is exceedingly rare that a floridly psychotic individual perpetrates a violent crime. It is much more (overwhelmingly) likely that they become a victim of violent crime either due to their inability to protect themselves from those who would mean them harm or because some nosey Parker calls law enforcement on them and they end up dead by ignorant cop.

Statistically speaking the neighbor kids have more to fear from their own family members than from a schizophrenic neighbor. The adults in the neighborhood have more to fear from their spouses or partners or exes than from a schizophrenic neighbor.

As a coincidence, on my way home from an errand this morning I was stopped at a light and saw a floridly psychotic person having an animated conversation with imaginary friends at the roadside. I felt no fear. I recalled what my grandmother always told me when we would see someone different like that out in public. Touched by God, she would tell me. These are the people God sends among us to test our compassion and character. Would you pass?[/quote]

Call the cops so maybe he gets shot? Any chance he’s black too? [/quote]

No he'd already be locked up. His parents would have been ran out of their Bethesda like neighborhood[/quote]
