This woman was mentally ill. That's not her fault! It's our State's fault for continually cutting back on care of those who are mentally ill, for pushing them out of mental hospitals or letting lawyers "spring" them out, when they need care. Many of these patients end up committing suicide after being rushed out, or allowed to check out before they have a handle on their illness. The woman was being served commitment papers, and had maybe been committed before--who knows how many times! The degree of civilization that we have is not wagered by the technology we have but by the compassion that we show to the least of those among us...including the mentally ill, those on life-support and the unborn...these are the least among us. Evidently, Jerry the snitch who wrote "Mouse-hole the trailer wall and take her out with two shots to the head" is not very civilized at all! Perhaps Jerry the Snitch is one of the least among us, and if people like him took that same stance, Jerry himself might wish for a more merciful outlook!
