here in florida we have baker act. this means you can report someone as nuts. then, police collect that person, and send them 2 the nut house for further psychiatric treatment and evaluation. Is there anyone you would baker act?
Let's just say it will be damned quiet @ work if we have that here Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
But how can they throw someone in the nuthouse without evidence? You could pretty much point your finger at anyone and say they are cookoo and they would be taken away? I don't think that is constitutionally correct. I thought it was "innocent until proven guilty". By having to go into an institution for pyschological evaluation against your will, you are already deemed guilty. I think it has the potential to be abused, this Baker Act.
