Mad Axe-man on the loose!

Nice! In slow-mo too.

Should have shot him when he went for the swing. Problem solved…

Mental Health has no funding. They need a secure MH facility more than anything here. What scares me is that people like this – who are clearly mentally unstable – get released – while evil money grabbing cunts like Maurice King who smashed his wifes head in because she was leaving him get to stay out of jail for pleading ‘crazy’.

Escape from Tasmania… haha

Then we’ll send in Snake Plissken to rescue the president, it’ll be sooooo cool

Thats exactly it…. it is always seems to be such a blind eye policy with people mental disabilites…. I agree that they should be given equal opportunity in life… but what the fuck do you do when they go haywire… like above.. you can’t just let them run free…

Greencard program isn’t bad… or we could just dump them in tassie and make it more of a ‘pyscho’ fun park…

NTP, no, not saying it’s ok. This guy is a danger to others. He needs help. he should NOT have been just “sent home”. This is yet another sign of the crappiness of the ACT mental health system.

Didn’t somebody mention recently that the only time the police were concerned was when the schitzo was thinking they were a beacon of god or whatever and weilding a sword ?

Obviously this guy was thinking he was god’s lumberjack or something similar, but regardless, 6 days is pathetic.

The problem being, the jails are so full it’s probably the maximum time they can keep him in there.

Had he injured somebody, obviously it would be a different scenario, but it brings to mind the fact that this guy was running around weilding and threatening other people with an axe is possibly not quite the kind of behaviour we should be tolerating as a society, and appropriate measures that are not jail time should be looked at.

I for one propose they should be put on the USA Green Card program.

So if someone is nuts it’s ok that they run around having a go at people with a blockbuster? but not if they where only drunk? is drunk and nuts ok? what about while riding a unicycle?

I was meant to be on Jury Duty for this case! But as I wasn’t, I’m assuming I can comment?

It wasn’t just that he was drunk. He was schitzophrenic (excuse spelling, no coffee as yet)
