‘You’re dead!’ victim yells at Tea Party spokesman – U.S. news – Crime & courts – msnbc.com.

One of the shooting victims apparently has been convinced by the media rhetoric blaming the Teaparty for Loughner’s shootings.  Eric J. Fuller was hospitalized for two days for wounds  in  his knee and back.   He went to a  memorial gathering on Saturday,   photographed the speaker, Trent Humphries and threatened him, saying ” You’re dead”.

So… Mr.  Fuller has been committed  for this act, done in full view of the public and media cameras,  and is  undergoing psychiatric evaluation.

Don’t you think the media should tone down its rhetoric, blaming people to whom Loughner was not listening, for his crimes?

My Way News – “Cuckoo’s Nest” hospital rebuilt following abuses

My Way News – “Cuckoo’s Nest” hospital rebuilt following abuses.

Oregon State Mental Hospital in Salem will be getting a major makeover, with most of the building being replaced by a new facility.

Better facilities, more outdoor space, better meals and more treatment is forecast for the patients, most of whom are involuntarily committed to the hospital.

Ken Kesey’s 1962 story was based on his experiences at a VA facility in California, but was filmed at the Oregon State hospital.

State inspections revealed the Salem facility to have quite a few skeletons in its own closet, including unsanitary facilities,  troubles with patients dying of pneumonia, and thousands of cremated corpses from the past century  stored in copper canisters on site.
