Hey bloggers, or whoever could be reading this blog. And so I found myself at this INTAR conference at the Kimmel Center, New York University the other day, for some reason or another. And in case you could be wondering who or what INTAR is, Intar stands for International Network Toward Alternatives And Recovery. And I think this is yet another one of those consumer, survivor, provider, possible Alternatives conferences to the mental health death system where everyone gathers to attempt to save the world from psych cia tricks. And that Inter sticker to be found on that folder read something like “INTAR, Rethinking Psychiatric Crisis: Alternative Responses To :First Breaks”. And some of those speeches at that conference went something like ” Alternatives Beyond Psychiatry, and it could be the marginalized preaching to the converted in the face of the pharmaceutical war and commercial advertising and marketing of psych drugs industry, the consumer survivor, and it could be Ken Kesey’s One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest, and what does it mean to be diagnosed crazy in a society this itself could be kind of crazy. Who is to say what is normal. And then there was the medications, treatments, danger to self and danger to others, electroshock therapy, released after your insurance runs out, homeless shelters, DSMII manuals, alternatives, yoga, meditation, psychiatric survivors, altered states, psychotic experiences, psychotic episodes, prison industrial complex, psychiatry as bigger than the war industries speeches. And psychiatry can be mass murders in white coats, legalized drug dealers, descendants of Nazi Germany and eugenics, maybe. And can one be for or against big pharma as I have heard it said somewhere before. And some of those workshops and topics in that conference literature they provided included: Why do we need Alternatives, What are the Key Alternatives, multimedia performances and speakers that included Celia Brown, Will Hall, Sue Estroff, Alma Menn, Mary Olson, Ron Bassman, Peter Stastny, David Cohen, Harvey Rosenthal, Kim Hopper, Andy Blanch, Robert Whitaker, Lauren Tenny, Thomas Bock, Laura Prescott and a host of others. And Psychiatry Kills. Abolish Involuntary Forced Psychiatric Treatment. No one is free while others are oppressed. For all things alternatives to the mental death system, David Oaks Mind Freedom and Support Coalition International are a good website to visit. And what, if anything, does this have to do with a No Police State?![]()

Michael Jackson
And with the news of the day that seems as if it is prempting all other news. Michael Jackson, the king of pop, has passed away from cardiac arrest, and according to TMZ.com, as yet another victim of hollywood and psychiatry, painkillers, morphine and demerol. And I found myself posting this following post on this blog a while ago:
Hey Bloggers, and somehow I came across this video while youtubeing on YouTube the other day in search of youtubeness and that “Claudine” movie from the sixties, that lead me to “Sparkle” that other classic movie from I think the 80’s that then led me somehow to Donny Hathaway,a composer who has songs in these films. And his songs seem as if they can bring the holy ghost to one with their gospel overtones. And it is really cool to me the idea that one can watch whole films and television shows on YouTube for if nothing else to do, seemingly hours at a time, endless. And so in my search for this Donny Hathaway, Giving Up (Live At The Astrodome) video that came up. it was somehow written that Donny Hathaway was another one of those entertainers who died a tragic death and whose life was cut short, possibly as the result of Hollywood production companies, psychiatry and its psychotropic medications of bug spray chemical lobotomies mainly. And this entertainer seems to have passed along the lines of so many countless entertainers and classic legends as Marilyn, Anna, Keith, Kurt, Elvis and other entertainers of hollywood who could have possibly become victims of hollywood, the mental death system, psychiatry and contracts. And Psychiatry Kills. Abolish involuntary forced psychiatric treatment. No one is free while others are oppressed. And I do not believe in mental illness. I have always thought of it as problems in living. And those EDP emotionally disturbed people are everyday people to me. And I have always thought of psych cia tricks as legalized drug dealers, mass murderers in white coats, an industry bigger than the war industry originating in Nazi Germany whose origin is of eugenics and genocide. And for all things alternatives to psychiatry, Mind Freedom is a good website to visit for human rights in the mental health system. And what, if anything does this have to to do with a No Police State. Have a great entertainment day.![]()
A May Day
And according to that Gregorian calendar on the wall, tomorrow is May 1st, May Day. (Okay, actually the other day was May 1st. It’s just that this is one of those posts that was written on my other blog some time a while ago…), That socialists, revolutionary or some other ism, workers of the world unite holiday. And Linda Andre has written a book titled Doctors of Deception, what they don’t want you to know about shock treatment. I know because this flyer I have here before me that says “Meet the author: Book signing and discussion at Bluestockings Bookstore and Selis Manor says so. And tis flyer goes on to say “Shock treatment. They say it’s safe now, not like it used to be. They say it doesn’t cause brain damage or erase memory. But who are they and why should you believe them? In this groundbreaking book, Linda Andre exposes the claims made for shock treatment as pubic relations, not public science. She raises profound questions. Through the investigation of court records, medical research FDA archives, and other primary sources, Andre shows that claims of safety and efficacy made by doctors who promote and profit from ECT are not supported b scientific evidence. She reveals how the shock industry and organized psychiatry abused pubic trust and has waged a masterful, multi-decade public relations campaign to improve ECT’s image, deceiving the media, the government, and the public about its risks while exploiting negative stereotypes of mental patients to silence survivors.
And so I somehow found myself at that Bluestockings book signing and discussion the other day, and Harry Bentivegna Lichtenstein was there and he had this poem to read:
Electroconvulsive Shock Therapy? (ECT)
Therapy?
ECT is no more therapeutic than,
bashing skulls more,
or less forcefully (gentler?),
irrespective of gender,
with a sledge hammer,
Sledge Hammer Therapy?, SHT,
from here on pronounced, “shh…t”,
would be therapy.
Let’s try to imagine the victim’s experience
Nausea, discombobulated,
LOST MEMORIES,
Painful static electricity like feelings causes enveloping darkness.
The victims are called, “patients”.
Serious injury and torture are called, “therapy”.
Mental dementia and brain damage are called, “side effects”.
Torturers are called, “doctors”.
The electric current goes on as bodies do shivering dances to it.
And the current goes on.
Is torture ethical?
Is it a civil rights violation?
Can scientific research be used to-
justify and reclassify torture as being therapy?
Are forced ECT and SHT legal?
Are new laws necessary?
The answers depend on the time, place,
and legal system we are living under.
ECT is like the emperor who wore no clothes!
Swindlers called themselves, “scientists“.
They dressed it in the big lie of it’s therapeutic value.
“Only the dim witted can’t see its clothing,” said the swindlers.
But, ECT is as stark naked as the emperor was!
Whatever it takes,
enforcing or changing laws;
stop the uncivilized use of forced ECT and SHT,
whether it is descried as,harsh” of “gentler”.
Flush the toilet full of ECT and SHT.
And Psych trickery Kills. Abolished Forced psych cia trick treatment. For all things alternative to the mental death system, Mind Freedom is a website to visit. And what does this have to do with a No Police State?
An Entertainer
Hey Bloggers, and somehow I came across this video while youtubeing on YouTube the other day in search of youtubeness and that “Claudine” movie from the sixties, that lead me to “Sparkle” that other classic movie from I think the 80’s that then led me somehow to Donny Hathaway,a composer who has songs in these films.

Psych Trickery

And I am not sure what this all may mean, but these headlines keep repeating themselves, time after time, day after day. And though the names may change, the story remains the same. Another person takes another ones life because they were on psychiatric drugs. And the latest headlines being “NYPD Rips Taser Cops”, an article that is to be found in last weeks NY Daily News. And this article seems as if the polizei are now using taser guns as a license to subdue someone, and the mentally ill to where that person loses their life. And this person was called an emotionally disturbed person, an EDP, or every day people. And I do not believe in mental illness. I think of mental illness as problems in living. Psychiatry is an art and not a science. And I do know that psychiatry kills and that psychiatrists are mass murders in white coats, as psychiatry and the mental health death system were born during Nazi Germany where the mentally ill were the first group killed by the nazis and were required to wear a yellow star badge. And I oppose involuntary psychiatric intervention because it is a violation of an individuals right to control his or her own soul, mind and body. And I oppose forced psychiatric procedures such as drugging, electroshock, psychosurgery, restraints, solitary confinement, and “aversive behaviour modification”. And I oppose the psychiatric system because it is inherently tyrannical. And I oppose the psychiatric system because it is an extralegal parallel police force which suppresses cultural dissent. And I oppose that psych trickery for a whole lot of other reasons. And it is my hope that forced psychiatric treatment could be abolished. No one is free while others are oppressed. And I know that common neuroleptic psychiatric drugs such as Thorazine, Haldol, Prolixin, Navane, Mellaril, Stelazine, Compazine, Dartal, Daxolin, Lidone, Loxitane, Moban, Orap, Permitil, Prozac, Proketazine, Quide, Repoise, Serentil, Sparine, Taractan, Tindal, Trilafon, Vesprin and others cause brain damage and tardive dyskinesia. And it is these tranquilizers which cause homicidal and suicidal thoughts in individuals, creating more and more of these “A mental person takes another persons life” headlines. And so I thought to post this blog entry again that I posted from some time a while ago:
And there it is in the headlines in the news again today. The AM New York says it was the fourth shooting at a U.S. school in a week. Another person has lost their life to the latest rampage of the day. It is in the news on a daily basis so much that I am just going to repost a blog entry I posted just a few days ago:
There is was in the headlines again yesterday. A rampage occurred in a different state of America everyday this past week and another person has lost their life to gun violence with no end in sight. And it seems as if I could almost devote this blog to reposting and repeating this blog entry over and over on a daily basis with no end in sight. The following is a blog entry that was posted a few days ago:
There it is in the news again today. Again, I could cut and paste my blog entries over and over in my appeal to banish guns from every human being on the face of planet earth and to end the use of the images of guns in all forms of advertising, marketing, film and television as I have written in blog posts of the past. Does not advertising influence society. Guns are the worst invention of an industry ever. The am New York had an interesting statistic in an article titled “Guns and people”; there are nine guns for every ten people in the United States, a scary statistic. And there is another interesting article in their paper titled “Mayors band together to combat gun violence”, some sort of acknowledgement that there is a problem. And The Villager has interesting statistics in an article titled “”Lower East Siders blast back against gun violence”, New Yorkers Against Gun Violence, told a forum that 30,000 people a year are killed in gun violence nationally. And yet another person has lost their life to gun violence, and everyday someone loses their lives to acts of gun violence for whatever reason and no reason at all except for the fact that guns have been invented. It is a story that has been told in yesterdays headlines and will be told in tomorrows headlines with no end in sight. It is an industry that feeds on itself, advertisement and sensational nationalism breeds crime which breeds news, which breeds crime, which breeds more advertisement which breeds more crime. Will the cycle of the beast that has it’s grip on humanity ever end. Should not guns be abolished from humanity as a whole, from everyone on the face of planet earth. And then there is that constitutional 4th amendment, the right to bear arms that should be abolished or rewritten to abolish guns and replace them with sticks and stones or something. The idea that property, material goods are worth more than life. It seems as if it is that story “The Emperor Wears No Clothes” and the whole world is paying with the loss of human life which seems to be a disposal commodity in the war industry of people against humanity. Are the slaughters of wars debasing the value of human life? Will the beast, who or whatever it is, ever release it’s grip on mankind? Are the standards of social behavior declining? Is there a worldwide moral breakdown? Is society collapsing? Where is the world headed, is there hope? And one could turn the page of the newspaper and forget about these stories and daily atrocities of the world, yet they still exist. And I watched that film Bowling For Columbine by Michael Moore the other day. It is an amazing documentary to me never seen before in the history of time. And the on the back cover jacket for this film it says: “Acclaimmed filmaker Michael Moore (Roger & Me) takes aim at America’s love affair with guns and violence in this Oscar winning film that “demands attention” (People)! Mixing riveting footage, hilarious animation and candid interviews with everyone from the NRA’s Charlton Heston to shock rocker Marilyn Manson, Bowling for Columbine is a “brilliant” (The Hollywood Reporter) tour de force of filmaking.” I am one voice, one blogger. If only it were possible to go back in time before guns existed. Is another world possible. Peace on earth and goodwill to all mankind. And what does this have to do with a No Police State?
And this latest massacre of the day story, as well as another loss of life story of the day earlier this week are also a psychiatric state. So much that I just find myself reposting the same blog entry I posted just a few weeks ago it seems: And what doe these stories have to do with a No Police State?
And my friend gave me a flyer as we were discussing the latest atrocity of the day in relation to gun violence. It is a flyer she received back in April at Union Square Park of New York City. And it is a flyer about gun violence and psychiatry. The Pharmaceutical industry is bigger than the war industry. Psychiatry Kills. Abolished forced psychiatric treatment. And what’s that “One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest” film by Ken Kesey all about anyway. That’s a whole another blog posting. For all things human rights and psych cia trickery and alternatives to the mental death system, Mind Freedom is a great website to visit to support human rights in the mental health system. I am one voice, one blogger. Is another world possible. Peace on earth and goodwill to all mankind. And what does this have to do with a No Police State?
And the flyer went on to read:
What caused the tragedy in “this state”?
It was reported in the Times and the Post Wednesday:
The killer had been taking anti-depressants.
All too often in the present age, we hear the tragic news of a senseless massacre somewhere in the country. Experience has shown, that the killer has almost always, if not absolutely always, been someone who had been prescribed anti-depressants.
The killers with names were kids who had been prescribed the anti-depressant ritalin.
The man who shot someone at this place had been prescribed an anti-depressant whose classic symptom is extreme rage directed at one specific person. The killers in the recent massacres in three different states, also one in another state, had been taking various prescription anti depressants.
Pharmaceutical drugs are prescribed, not as a last resort but as a first thought, not hesitantly but hastily and with excess. They are not properly used, but abused, with no thought of the side effects of taking chemicals which nature did not produce and evolution did not plan for us to be subjected to, like bug spray or insecticide. And this is not a small and isolated phenomenon, but rather a deliberate and systematic poisoning of the bodies and minds of the American people, on an epidemic scale.
The concentration of power, Mr. Moneybags, the State, which controls the American military-industrial complex and the pharmaceutical chemical companies that are an integral part of that system, the State, which, as Eisenhower warned, would one day gain undue influence and endanger our Liberties, has an interest in promoting this epidemic scourge of prescription drug use. Hundreds of billions of dollars a year, are made by the corporations that sell these drugs. It is big business. In addition, the State which experience has shown, for thousands of years all over the globe, tends to want to empower itself and dis-empower the People, gets exactly that benefit from this epidemic of drug use. Power and authority, competency and incompetency breeds corruption. It dis-empowers individuals by making them unhealthy. And it dis-empowers the community and the nation, by making people distrustful of each other; by making people think that their neighbor is a crazy person who they must be protected from; by persuading the People to accept, even to demand, increased police power of the State to protect them. Under such conditions even the will to independence vanishes.
The innovations of scientists and engineers are stolen and subverted by the concentrations of power; a virtue has become a vice, and chemical technology, which can and of right ought to be a liberating force in society, becomes enslaving.
Doctors are encouraged, by the drug industry, to prescribe artificial drugs to their patients. It is a regular practice, for the drug companies to pay a doctor a fee every time that doctor prescribes one of their drugs. It is no secret. In this way, the basic essential character of the American medical profession becomes one of conflict of interest.
The companies that make these drugs exert a great deal of pressure upon the mass media. There are huge advertising contracts, and there is an overlap of ownership between the drug companies and the media companies. The fact that a mass murderer was taking prescription drugs, is one of those things that will show up once in the newspapers, but is immediately and finally buried, and mum becomes the word.
There have been a thousand analyses of the killer in papers, of his history, his personality, his psychological problems; there have been a thousand demands for increased police powers; there have been a thousand calls for the outlawing of guns, and a general de-clawing of the People. But has anyone asked, how is it that society produces so many sick people?
Prescription anti-depressants are known to be a common cause of suicide; they are known to be a constant presence in senseless massacres. Surely the number of individual murders caused by these drugs must be many times greater than the number of massacres. And if there are so many suicides and murders, how many people taking pharmaceuticals must be gravely suffering, but have not quite yet arrived at the point of suicide or murder?
This epidemic of drug use, this deliberate poisoning of the bodies and minds of the American people, this deliberate, and thus far largely successful, did-empowerment of the American people, must stop. It is our purpose to reveal this truth to the American people, so that we may once again live in a sane and healthy society and the tragic deaths of so many good people in this State shall not have been in vain.![]()
Trader Woes
And after having went to that popular New York supermarket Trader Joes, who can’t seem to keep their shelves stocked fast enough, I thought of this day as Trader Woes as the New York Stock Exchange, Wall Street Dow Jones economy seems to be tanking and going downhill on this day, so much that the Federal Reserve can not seem to print up enough money fast enough to cover it all. And is this the beginning or the end of a recession depression. And maybe everyone could squat the world, free the land and be free, or at least housing could be free. No one is free when others are oppressed. Is another world possible? And in other thoughts, That “The Conscious Objector”, “Life, Liberty and…Is America Driving You Crazy?” article written by Amanda Park Taylor in this weeks L Magazine, that events magazine that is to be found just about everywhere in those corner boxes on the streets in that City of New York, is really interesting. And those Amanda Park Taylor articles are always really cool to read to me as they seem to be environmental related and seek to save the world and planet mother earth. And this weeks article seems to be an exception in that it mentions psychiatry and its hazards, and dared to go where no man has gone before, or usually goes before in the media, in speaking about psychiatry. And that is awesome to me. And her article went on to say something about one in four college students is now taking antidepressants, a quarter of the soldiers returning from Iraq are diagnosed with mental illness, a huge growing percentage of children are on psychoactive medications, for either depression, or, more commonly ADD/ADHD, and the overall incidence of “mental illness” has nearly doubled since 1987, when Prozac was introduced, and that the drug industry has a lot of power and are not into alternative therapies where there is no money to be made from insurance. And her article goes on to say many more interesting things about medication and the pharmaceutical drug industry. And I am against psychiatry. Psychiatry Kills. Psychiatrists and their treatments are mass murderers in white coats, as descendants of Nazi Germany where psychiatry and the mental death system was born, maybe. Abolish forced psychiatric treatment. For all things mental health human rights and alternatives to the mental health death system, MindFreedom is a good website to visit. And what, if anything does this have to do with a No Police State?![]()
Drugs In The Water?
The news says there is another hurricane on this day toward the country of America, and many people have fled their homes. And what must it mean to leave ones home and to uproot ones self. And then there was a Yahoo News headline yesterday that read “AP Enterprise: Drugs affect more drinking water”. Hugh? Now that article sounds like something straight out of a George Orwell 1984 science fiction horror story novel. And this article went on to say something like different states in America have different trace amounts of pharmaceuticals in their drinking water supplies. Hugh? And is this the work of the American Psychiatric Association or the American Medical Association. Now I have heard of ozone in the water such as it is in Europe, and even that fluoride that has something not so good in it, but drugs? And I know that psychiatry kills, that the pharmaceutical industry is bigger than the war industry, that psychiatrists are mass murderers in white coats and that involuntary forced psychiatric treatment should be abolished, but this sounds like some sort of an extreme. And will the nation and all of humanity, at least in America at the moment, now be a pharmaceutical drugged up nation. And how is it possible to drug up all of the water supply and humanity and turn them into walking zombies straight out of the movie Night of the Living Dead anyway. Did someone accidentally drop a gallon of bug spray into the water supply, wherever the water supply is. And I am not sure if even the greatest historian, prophet, Nostradamus, astrologer or science fiction novel writer could have predicted a headline like this, maybe. And it could be a Prozac, Thorazine, chemical bug spray lobotomy, tardive dyskinesia tic nation indeed with a headline like this. And what does one do, not drink the water, or perish? Or maybe one could drink bottled water only, and then those plastic bottles seem to have their own environmental hazard horror stories going with those polycarbonate phyto chemicals leaching from that plastic bottle into its content. And those water filters can probably only filter so much bug spray and psychiatric drugs when it comes to filtering out drugs and working miracles, maybe. Oh, and there’s always the creaks, streams, rivers, lakes, oceans and the nearest body of water one could drink straight out of, maybe. And what could be next, could there be some sort of DSM III manual label created for this drug the water syndrome called “waterphreniaosis” or something to generate even more money for those treatments from that water for that mental death industry. And for everything mental patients liberation, human rights and alternatives to psychiatry, Mind Freedom is a good website to visit. And how do those psych trickery eugenics companies possibly benefit and profit from drugging the water supply I cannot understand or comprehend anyway, as the water supply does not usually discriminate as far as I know. And is there some sort of answer for this science fiction novel headline. And what does this have to do with A No Police State?![]()
Alternatives Beyond Psychiatry
And so I saw my friend Laura the other day, over these end of the year, New Years Day holidays. And her being as anti Big Pharma, American Psychiatric Association, American Medical Association, National Alliance for the Mentally Ill (NAMI), Friends and Alliances of the Mentally Ill (FAMI) parents who lock up their kids in wards, mental death system and everything else psych cia trick oppression in between, as am I also, she had this book with her that she wrote a chapter for. And Laura has been one of those “Abolish forced psychiatric treatment, Psychiatry Kills” advocates for as long as I can remember. And the book is called Alternatives Beyond Psychiatry edited by Peter Stastny, Peter Lehmann, with a preface by Robert Whiteker. I haven’t exactly read this book yet but I am sure it addresses the atrocities of the mental death system which includes eugenics inspired psychiatric killing centers in Nazi Germany which is how the holocaust began, and that this book advocates humane alternatives to the mental health system, psychiatric drugs, electroshock and locked wards. And the cover of the book is interesting, there must be photos of about sixty or so authors who again I assume speak for alternative for psychiatry. And among them is David Oaks, founder of Support Coalition International, an organization that addresses alternatives to psychiatry for as as long as I can remember. And in this book there are chapters by Laura Ziegler, Jim Gottstein, Kate Millett, Marius Romme and Sandra Escher, Gisela Sartori, Rufus May, Jan Wallcraft, Philip Thomas and Salma Yasmeen, Bruce Levine and many others. And there is another book advertised on the last page, “Coming Off Psychiatric Drugs: Successful Withdrawal from Neuroleptics, Antidepressants, Lithium, Carbamazepine and Tranquilizers”, edited by Peter Lehmann, Prefaces by Judi Chamberlin, Pirkko Lahti and Loren R. Mosher. And I would think that this book would have a message to share for alternative to the mental death system. Whether these books will change the world, I am not sure. Is another world possible. And what does this have to do with a No Police State? Peace on earth and goodwill to all mankind.![]()
A Gun Bill
There was a headline in the news yesterday on the Yahoo homepage that read “Gun bill inspired by “A place where gun violence occurred”, and the article went on to say something about the mentally ill will be targeted and asked for documentation when they go to buy guns. Hugh? Is not the problem with guns that guns are sold everywhere to anyone at all, and not the people. And there was a sales excerpt in this past weeks Sunday newspaper for a sports store. This advertisement was for the hunting section of their store and it pictured a man dressed in camouflage with a gun tossed over his shoulder and there were photos of guns and rifles with brand names and fancy descriptions for sale all over the page. Are people animals who are people to be hunted? Is hunting for animals and people now considered a sport to be sold in the malls of America and on sales brochures next to roller skates and advertised in the papers for all to see. Is this not the same? Is not the problem that the images of guns are found in television, film, commercials, posters, newspapers, cartoons, video games and marketing and advertisements everywhere these days. Does not advertising influence society. I could cut and paste my blog entries over and over in my appeal to abolish guns. Guns are the worst invention of an industry ever. Everyday someone loses their lives to random acts of gun violence for no reason at all except for the fact that guns have been invented. It is a story that has been told yesterday and will be told tomorrow with no end in sight. It is an industry that feeds on itself, advertisement breeds crime which breeds news, which breeds crime, which breeds more advertisement which breeds more crime. Will the cycle of the beast that has it’s grip on humanity ever end. Should not guns be abolished from humanity as a whole, from everyone on the face of planet earth. And then there is that constitutional 4th amendment, the right to bear arms that should be abolished or rewritten to abolish guns and replace them with sticks and stones or something. The idea that property, material goods are worth more than life. And the whole world is paying with the loss of human life which seems to be a disposal commodity in the war industry of people against humanity.

It is our purpose to reveal this truth to the American people, so that we may once again live in a sane and healthy society and the tragic deaths of so many good people in this State shall not have been in vain.![]()
The Lives They Left Behind
I do not know what this is all about, but sometimes I find myself reading the newspapers just to find something to blah blog about. And this time a listing in the Village Voice seemed interesting. It’s an exhibit about leftover baggage and the lives of psychiatric inmates that were left behind in a suitcase called “The Lives They Left Behind:Suitcases From a State Hospital Attic.” I guess the title may be self explanatory. In the attic of one of the abandoned buildings of a State Psychiatric Hospital building, workers discovered a stack of suitcases that belonged to former patients. Their personal belongings, along with their medical records, has inspired a fascinating exhibition at the New York Public Library. And as being anti psychiatric state and anti psych cia trick association, this is an exhibit that I would be interesting in seeing. And just the idea that ones life can be condensed to a suitcase is a lot to comprehend to me. The pharmaceutical industry seems to be bigger than the war industry these days. Psychiatry Kills. Abolish forced psychiatric treatment. For all things human rights and alternatives to psychiatry and the mental death system, Support Coalition International is a great website to visit. No one is free while others are oppressed. Is another world possible. And what does this have to do with a No Police State. ![]()
