| Obamacare: Man Who Murdered Navy Seal Released Against Family's Wishes From VA Hospital |
| 2013-02-08 |
| His other court-appointed attorney, J. Warren St. John, said Routh was released from the Dallas Veterans Affairs hospital against his family's wishes just two days before the shootings. In September, Routh had been transported to a psychiatric hospital after he threatened to kill himself and his family, and he later told officers that he suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder, Lancaster police records show. Erie how Obama and Satan seem to really hate the Navy SEALS. |

| #4 I'm hearing that this guy was a fobbit, so the source of his neuroses probably predates his years in the service. My guess is that Chris Kyle was a victim of relaxed recruitment standards during the campaign in Iraq, which mostly coincided with the major economic boom from the housing bubble. |

| #3 tw, sorry, not good enough. Normal procedures are fine for normal cases, but when the family turns up and says no, then it is not normal. When I had to go pick up a relative at the jail, I was pissed, but I didn't say to the man, please keep this nutbag in the jail. It is just not normal to put up a fight about letting your own stay in the lockup. Dead people cost a lot of money in lost wages at least. Keeping a few nutbags in the ward for a few more weeks is a small price to pay. The Solyndra losses alone would cover about 250,000 patient weeks. I am good with that. |

| #2 Emergency hospitalization is intended only for evaluation and stabilization. The case -- and the patient -- are then released into the wild after being advised to make an appointment with an outpatient psychiatrist and therapist upon return home. Psychiatric wards cost about $8,000/week in my part of the world, and there are considerably more people in need than beds, so they're rotated through as quickly as possible. Unless we as a society are willing to budget considerably more than we do today for psychiatric treatment, particularly hospital treatment, this will continue. |

| #1 Another mental patient goes wrong and pushes someone in front of a subway train, shoots them at a range, or gets all stabby in a restaurant. It is time to crack the whip on mental patients. Here was a guy, already in the nut house for being a nutbag. His family said, "Keep him in there. He is a nut bag." And some moron let him out? Then he wigs out and kills people. The moron who set the nutbag free should at least expect some sort of discipline. I mean, does he get a letter in his work record saying, "Oh, bad call, dude." For goodness sake, can't we at least publish the record that says, "Magistrate Joe released nutbag Jimmy on Tuesday." Then when Jimmy flips his wig on Saturday morning, we would know who to shun at dinner parties next month. |
