The world is definately going bonkers
Just got back from doing another job at a local hospital (45klm’s away).
Had all sorts of ‘strange’ people approach us this afternoon. Some were downright creepy.
We were installing panic alarm signs for the nurses who are on night shift.
One nurse came up and expressed his relief that something was finally being done to protect them from the rapists, murderers and creepy people that wander around the hospital grounds.
I expressed some surprise that they see enough of these people to install 20 panic buttons on the paths and car parks.
The nurse told me that the hospital had a mental ward that housed the said rapists etc, and they were let out every afternoon about 4pm, about an hour before the new nursing shift arrived, so they could assimilate back into society.
Apparently the nurses union complained that these high security mental patients/prisoners were a danger for their members. Through negotiation, they agreed in writing to only accept low security mental patients.
To get around the unions demands, the Government here re classified these high risk mental inmates as ‘low risk’. Nothing the Union can do.
Now, the hospital has had to put on a full, armed security watch 24/7, panic alarms throughout the entire complex, and robberies, rapes and attempted murders are a weekly occurrence.
I was talking to head of security today, and he tells me that its not uncommon to have nurses and Doctors chased through the car park by these mental patients, wielding cricket bats and pipes..
All in the name of political correctness. The government are claiming that these mental patients have rights, and that locking them away from the innocent public is not giving them a chance to prove themselves.
I have to tell you, some of the people that approached us today were several sandwiches short of a full picnic.
Several female nurses expressed relief that the panic alarms were finally being installed, but few expresses any faith that it would resolve the safety issues.
I must confess, I’d think twice about letting any family member work there at night. I’d be making sure someone was there to pick them up at the entrance rather than have them walk to their car in the dark and down some lonely areas.
I’d like to see some of these government ministers walk through the areas we were working on a dark lonely night. I was jittery in full daylight!! 🙄 😕

Sounds very much like a meeting of UKSB members at SIGNUK :lol1:

political correctness gone mad yet again. It’s astonishing that dangerous people like this are allowed those ‘rights’. They are in locked wards for a reason, not so that they can get an hour a day to roam about and possibly do what put them there in the first place! 😕
Like you Shane I wouldn’t be happy at the thought of a family member working in a place like that.

The problem, as I see it, is that government (and its associated liberals) wants to REHABILITATE criminals in stead of PUNISHING them. If rapists, murderers, and other such creatures are locked away / kept away from sane society, then, at least for the period of their incarceration, they can NOT terrorize the population. In my view, you wave your rights to several basic human rights by pursuing a criminal career. For starters, you have no more "freedom of movement" if you are in jail. If we can take one basic right away from criminals, then surely we can take some other rights away as well?
In third world countries it gets even more insane! In Namibia, for example, you can get away with a 10 year jail term for murder, Rape, sodomy, child molestation etc – about 5 years. (as for armed robbery) If you steal a Goat or Cow, you can get 10 years……..20 years on a second conviction!
The reason for this? The bulk of the (semi literate – literally ) Members of Parliament own rather large commercial farms, bought with Affirmative Action loans via the state controlled Agricultural Bank of Namibia. (very view repay a single cent on these "political elite" loans…) Since these fat cats are absentee land owners, they suffer a lot from stock theft. The solution? Single stock theft out as the one of the single most serious crimes in the country !! Makes sense, heh?
At least this law (and a few others) are being challenged in the High Court. The High Court already set aside as un-constitutional the Law on Labour Hire – on the grounds of incompetence and "emotional" law making by the MP’s…
In Australia you send the criminally Insane to a Mental Hospital – over here we send them to Parliament….hence we need at least 5 panic buttons in every house and business, nationwide !

Is there a way to find out where some of these politicians live and then bus a group of the mental patients over to their neighborhood every day? Might have them repeal their decision pretty quickly.

I know what you mean Shane.Many years ago I used to do food deliveries to a mental hospital near where you are talking about, it was a very unnerving experience to say the least. Several of the inmates would stand about 2-3 inches away and stare at you or worse still would scream obscenities at you they were so close the spittle would hit you in the face.
One day with my arms full I was sexually groped. The young lady patients were always getting pregnant. clothing was removed and found scattered all around the exercise area. I used to hate Tuesday’s. All in all it was a very scary delivery and one I still remember 35 years later -

My wife used to work at the local nut house. Her office was always locked even when she was in it and she had CCTV to see anyone who knocked the door. 😮
Co-incidentally my mom worked in the same place in the late 50’s and she used to tell us of a lady who when you walked passed her, you had to bow and say "Good morning Queenie" if you didn’t you would have the nearest object available thrown at you. (chat.) :lol1:

My wife works in a mental hospital as a nurse, she says it’s no different at home than work? can’t think what she means tho. (chat.)

You are right mate, it is starting to make sense. :lol1: :lol1:
Did another job recently for an agency that tried to find employment or main stream housing for the seriously mentally ill. All part of the same Political correctness displayed at the hospital. I’m starting to think our Government may be taking the lead from Namibia 🙄
This place is not far from me and needed a sign replaced as a ‘client’ ran amok and damaged the original one.
When I got there, I had to look into a camera and state my business. Once satisfied they opened the door and locked me in. It was pretty disconcerting. The women told me it was for my own protection.
While I was there they were being debriefed by the manager on what happen for the day.
One woman related how here ‘client’ ripped the head off a live chook when she got angry about not being housed in a ‘normal’ house, and another related how her ‘client’ soiled her trousers while being interviewed for a job, then proceeded to write her name on the employers wall using the ‘material’ in her underwear as ink.
I was stunned to say the least. But, I’m told they have to find housing for these people under our governments new political correctness regime, I just pity anyone that participates in the scheme without doing their homework.
These people need help, but not to be sent out into a society in which they have no idea how to participate… nor does our society need these ones that are mentally unstable amongst them, for everyones protection.
