All the bloody Victorians who came up to make a quick buck in the mines. :tease:

This thread about a nut has gone nuts 🤡

There was a girl in our driveway this morning having some serious issues , in what appeared to be a three way conversation in her head. About the same time a neighbor from a public housing unit wandered by with his usual yelling and gesturing. Always very well dressed and often carrying his brief case.

I worked on some patient data for dementia before

Majority of the medication prescribed for these patients are sedatives and sleeping pills

That's what results when mental health centres, where the staff make sure people take their bi- polar medications, are closed down and people put out in the community, where they feel OK, so stop taking their medications and drift off into unreality. The people who know about this mental health stuff have repeatedly and correctly predicted what would happen, but were ignored by those who thought saving money was top priority.

Please keep the thread on track without personal attacks. I have had to delete a couple of posts. Remember everyone is entitled to their opinion without criticism.

So, bearman , as a moderator, do you condone bully boy tactics? Can members push on the edge, purely to force a response, without responsibility of their actions. Now tell me where in the AULRO DNA can a opinion , however radical, and wrong, not have criticism. This is not Nazi Germany. And that is a criticism. Unlike some, I will make a complaint in the open. Not behind some ones back. Always the same suspects.

I suggest you remove the baiting comments too, they lower the tone of the place.

For starters, no one is condoning any "tactics" or doing anything behind your back, so sorry no conspiracy theories here. It was simply asked for personal attacks to be kept out of the conversation.

Having cheap shots (whether they be deliberate or otherwise) at Victoria could be perceived (particularly by Victorians) as "pushing on the edge" trying "to force a response".

So, once again keep the personal attacks out of the conversation.

A lot of the time the police don't charge them as they are considered "mad" not "bad".
