      What’s the alternative? Locking up people who haven’t committed a crime if a doctor doesn’t like what they’re saying? This guy probably is schizophrenic but plenty of conspiracy theorists aren’t and people saying something true but unpopular sometimes sound like conspiracy theorists.

          I don’t think this guy would take any pills you tried to give him unless you literally forced them down his throat. (They’re created with computer too.)

              Mental healthcare is currently unavailable as we wait for a replacement part that is on backorder. In the meantime, please accept these sign boards and this extra large sharpie for the inconvenience.

          I think art therapy would work better than medication in this case.

          (Also, taking away someone’s driver license is tantamount to imprisonment in modern America.)
