I see they tried to get to Amanda Bynes now as well

  News reports are showing that Amanda Bynes was arrested under the false pretenses of a "DUI" last sunday.  The details of the case look utterly ridiculous. She should not have been arrested. They should have let her go home and sleep it off. What's the matter, couldn't fit her in the back of the squad car to get her home safe like decent individuals? Stop discrediting people by giving them mental health labels and slapping them with criminal charges. There was no need to book her whatsoever. This is a person who tried to gain freedom from the mental health industry and they're trying to shut her down and discredit her. Leave her alone about the pills and let her be good.
   When I look at the news reports I see they tried to draw blood to prove that she had a drug in her system while driving. They didn't find any narcotics whatsoever. What they did find is that she was taking drugs that were prescribed to her. That is preposterous. They prescribe drugs that impair her, and then arrest her for it, thereby wrongly discrediting her as a schizophrenic patient and wrongly painting her as the source of the problem. The problem could very well the criminal negligence of her doctors or whoever prescribed something she could not handle. Have a sense of decency and stop doing this to people.
   I also see she is accused of having a "disheveled appearance." Okay, so they ran the whole playbook on her. So much for freedom of expression, right? I am criticizing the authorities and the press for accusing her of having a disheveled appearance as if that is a crime. People can dress and appear how they want as long as it is not lewd. It is part of our first amendment rights.
   The press and media have to wake up and report this correctly. They didn't find narcotics in her system, it is completely a false accusation. They even put the facts in the stories as I have stated above, but their headlines make her look like a bad person to people. Can the press get it right for once, take the whole of a case and think on their own two feet? Stop giving the police and the doctors so much credit just because they wear uniforms. Are people this gullible?
  Are we going to add this person to the laundry list of actresses and artists harmed by psychiatry? Stop pressuring her about the unfair label given her and leave her alone about that topic.

Personality Types and the Fall of Man Argument

   There will be some who will want to say that I was being illogical or unbiblical when I wrote the post about how personality differences get misunderstood.  Their argument is basically that differing personalities are a consequence of the Fall of Man- a consequence of the DNA getting disordered.  Therefore, they will say, that people who don't fit the "perfect personality" are sinful. God created one man, they will say, with a perfect personality (Adam).  In truth, they can cite Adam, Eve, and Jesus.  That argument is not correct, and I will stand my ground on this.    The reason why they are not correct is because they are making the unwarranted assumption all of Adam's descendants would have had the same personality had the Fall never happened. I can say with a fair degree of certainty that had the Fall never happened, there would have been different kinds of people with different personalities, it just would have been a more perfect world. ...

Nice Dissenting Opinion on the Fairness of the Criminal Justice System

   I was recently having a conversation with someone about the possibility for unreliability and/or unfairness in the criminal justice system. I was reminded of this quote from a Supreme Court case which is from Justice Harry Blackmun's dissenting opinion. The case was Darden v. Wainwright 477 U.S. 168 (1986). Obviously he's talking about the Supreme Court level, but if this could be said about their accuracy, then how shall we communicate about fairness at the trial court level? "JUSTICE BLACKMUN, with whom JUSTICE BRENNAN, JUSTICE MARSHALL, and JUSTICE STEVENS join, dissenting. Although the Constitution guarantees a criminal defendant only "a fair trial [and] not a perfect one,"  Lutwak v. United States,   344 U. S. 604 ,  344 U. S. 619  (1953);  Bruton v. United States,   391 U. S. 123 ,  391 U. S. 135  (1968), this Court has stressed repeatedly in the decade since  Gregg v. Georgia,   428 U. S. 153  (1976), that ...

This performance of "Lowzer" is better than the other performance of "Lozer"

   So I uncovered and uploaded another different "live" performance of the Sullivan's Dog song "Lowzer" from our days of performing (notice how I play with the spelling on purpose to upset people who take things too seriously?) Please disregard my complaining in the previous post about the vocal balance in the other version and about it being the only surviving version. Praise God this other version exists so people can hear a version closer to how it should really sound. Oh yeah, for those who don't know, I am the guitar player on the left hand side who is difficult to see, but I am not the bass player on the left who can be prominently seen. My playing can be heard quite well in the intro, though.      And the video URL:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T10OtiZFOZA&feature=youtu.be
