MENTAL HEALTH & CRIMINAL JUSTICE REFORM
Defending Human Rights & Personal Liberties
In the United States, fundamental rights are being violated under the guise of mental health and criminal justice policies. A goal is to reform laws that allow for involuntary detainment and forced medical procedures. We must examine cases of those detained in prisons in cases of no victim. True justice means protecting individual freedoms while holding people accountable for their actions—without overreach or abuse of power.
Key Issues :
- No Involuntary Psychiatry – No forced psychiatric drugging or procedures—no exceptions. No brain shocks, lobotomies, or mind-altering drugs should ever be administered against a person's will. If sedation is necessary for immediate safety, that is one thing, but no one should be subjected to forced psychiatric treatment.
- No Involuntary Corporal Punishment – No individual should be subjected to this physical punishment or forced treatments without consent. This treatment places a heavy mental weight on the subject.
- No Imprisonment Without a Victim – People should not be locked up unless they have wronged another. Victimless “crimes” should not lead to imprisonment.
- No Involuntary Body Cavity Searches – No forced body cavity searches—no exceptions. Modern scanners and technology make invasive procedures unnecessary.
- No Capital Punishment – The highest penalty should be life in prison, with the option for the inmate to voluntarily choose Death with Assisted Suicide (DAS).
The current system allows for arbitrary detainment and forced medical procedures. Who decides what is “normal” or “sane”? These subjective judgments lead to unjust outcomes, including:
- Individuals avoiding accountability for crimes by pleading insanity.
- Free-thinking individuals being forcibly detained for simply thinking or behaving differently.
- The circumvention of due process and fair trial protections.
Every citizen has the right to:
- Be free from oppressive government control over personal choices and beliefs.
- Be charged and tried based on actions, not mental health status.
- A fair trial by jury before any deprivation of rights, liberty, or property.
- Defend themselves in a court of law with full constitutional protections.
Many of these policies violate the U.S. Constitution and fundamental human rights, including:
- Amendment IV – Protection against unreasonable searches and seizures.
- Amendment V – No deprivation of life, liberty, or property without due process.
- Amendment VI – Right to a fair and speedy trial by an impartial jury.
- Amendment VIII – Protection against cruel and unusual punishment.
Laws must be based on protecting actual victims and ensuring fairness:
- Define victims before enforcing laws.
- Do not discriminate based on personal choices (e.g., cannabis vs. tobacco, religious vs. non-religious beliefs).
- Protect individual freedoms unless someone is wronging another.
LIBERTY - the state of being free within society from oppressive restrictions imposed by authority on one's way of life, behavior, or political views.
