Family of Maine shooting suspect says his mental health had deteriorated rapidly Sounds like schizo but sort of peculiar timing with the hearing aids. I suppose a tinfoil hat wearing sort would think that an aggregator could hack into that and propagate a shooting. There is a differentiation, sometimes very important, between a hallucination and an illusion. A hallucination is solely a product of the brain. No actual outside stimuli are present. An illusion, however, is a gross mis-interpretation of a real stimuli. Hallucinations are often caused by one type/location of damage vs illusions being caused by something completely different. It can mean the difference between the problem being psychiatric or psychological and it being true medical like brain lesions, seizures, stroke, TBI, etc. |

No I don't have a shower/toilet gun but I've carried in lots of so called non-permissive environments and I do carry at home so even doing those things there's likely one close. I've seen far to many bad things happen to be left defenseless if I can help it. It absolutely takes work to do and it takes more than one option to do it with. Don't take that as me saying anyone should break the law to do it. When belt carry and pocket carry are out, a 5.11 holster shirt is the answer. Always looking for options I'll check them out I just looked at them on the 5.11 site. Only small available, price reduced from $70 to $20. Seems like they're being closed out. |

Quoted: Question for those in the mental health field and apologies if it’s been asked already. I missed it. How likely is it for someone experiencing an acute mental break to have the mental facilities to plan out and implement an E&E plan that has successful up to this point? View Quote The scariest psychotic folks I've met were seniors in the mechanical engineering program up here. There is a particular semester where they are cramming for some special test they all take. These folks are ridiculously intelligent and educated, but enough time with no sleep, on top of the stress of the big test, pushes some over the edge into psychosis. Usually bipolar mania. I had one that sketched out the likely electrical routing inside the walls and the lock mechanisms because he was planning to de-energize the magnetic 5000lb locks on our unit doors and escape. His napkin drawing was scary in how accurate it was, he would have succeeded if he'd have pulled out the wire he indicated in his drawing. I'd call that forethought and planning. |

Quoted: I don't think I have ever been to a bowling alley that did not serve alcohol. Depending on how the ME statute is written it may be illegal to carry in any place that even serves it. I know in FL I can carry in a restaurant that has a bar in it, I just can't go to the bar itself. Even if they will bring drinks to your table it is legal to be there, just not at the bar itself.

For those thinking he used an issued army m4.
I dont have some inside source so this is just my opinion. It's nearly impossible to get m4 out of the vault without being the supply nco. You would need to enter the locked armory (easy part if you drill there), get into the locked supply room, get into the locked vault, get into the locked m4 weapons rack, then exit the armory.. tough task. Steal a humvee? Easy assuming the batteries aren't dead. Steal an m4? I don't think so but idk |
