We need to re-open all of the insane asylums and have the death penalty everywhere. Agree? Just read about the guy who mowed down a bunch of amish schoolkids today. Why would somebody target the amish?? The a-hole Baby Boomers and liberals closed down all of the insane asylums because it was deemed to be cruel to the inmates. So now we have these nuts running around free. Maybe they take their medication, maybe not. Lock the nuts away and I DON'T CARE IF IT IS CRUEL. I care about those poor amish families. We also need the death penalty everywhere. Enough already. You kill somebody and you did it purposely, you're dead. End of story. Life is NOT precious. There are too many of us, and we can do with weeding more than a few out.
Why are there mortuaries in insane asylums? I know the obvious answer - because people die. But why in an insane asylum? Is this incase the patients commit suicide?
If lead paint is so bad, where are all the insane asylums? Lead paint was used for decades in the U.S. and was only outlawed in the late 60's. In fact, the law was written where even after it was outlawed manufacturers of paint were still allowed to sell any inventory they still had, so guess what, they stocked up. The lead in paint is suppose to affect the brain. Children had lead paint on their toys for decades----ate lead paint chips off from window sills. No telling where else they were exposed to lead paint-----in quanities greater than today. If lead paint is so terrrible, where are all the insane asylums where the brain-dead kids who were exposed to lead paint in the 30's, 40's, 50's and 60's are kept? Is this latest lead paint scare just another media over-dramatization of a problem and another media event for our Congress? Kris N-----Actually the original Tin Man was played by Buddy Ebsen, who lived after that incident (I never heard about it being the lead in the paint) and went on to pllay Jed Clampett in :The Beverly Hillbillies". Guess you never heard of that, though.

Insane Asylums / Psychiatric Hospitals anyone? I'm writing a book about a girl (15) who spent sometime (involentary) in a Insane Asylum/Psychriatric Hospital/whatever you would like to call it (when she was in her preteens: 10-12 yrs old) and I have a few questions: - What would be some reasons she could have been sent there? - What would her time there be like? - What would the longest posible time she would have been there? - She has some semi-rich relatives, how would that effect her time there? - How would she mostlikely be afterwards? Would her Lifestyle change in anyway? (she was sent out because her Uncle gained custody on her and took her out -- doctors would have said she needed to be there longer.) - Would it be posible that she received memory lost? From Medications or abuse? Also any additional information about Insane Asylums/Psychiatric Hospitals would be great!! Also the Asylum is a bit... uh.. like what you would have seen a hundred years ago... (It would be complated to explain how they get away with it... it's a fantasy book so there is a reason you just have to read the book to get it) The time period for the Asylum would have been about 50 to 100 years ago... but I also want to know about modern ones...
I may have ended up in an insane asylum if I were born in an earlier time period... What is the point to life? I may have ended up in an insane asylum if I were born in an earlier time period... I never wondered before but am now fixated on finding an answer that will bring me peace and contentment: What is the point to life? If there is no God (and I am agnostic at this point and do believe in evolution), then why do we bother at all? Isn't all futile if we'll eventually die, cease to exist, and perhaps be forgotten within 100 years (or less)? I know not all people have children, so evolution must not be the only drive, and I am friends with many atheists or feel happy to be alive and want to make the most of it. Let's face it, people aren't killing themselves in droves at the realization that it may all be for nothing - so what are the motivations? Why do we do what we do despite our inevitable deaths? Looking forward to some interesting, thought engaging responses. Thank you!
I'm confused about the insane asylum can anyone help? I always thought that the insane asylum was a place where they send the crazy people, they put them in the straight jackets, and lock them up in the rooms with the nice, soft, squishy walls. I recently googled insane asylums on images and that's not what I saw at all. It was just like a torture chamber with lots of drugs. So what really goes down in that place?
Air Softing in abandoned Insane Asylum in a small town in Wisconsin? My friends and i have heard of an abandoned insane asylum in a small town near sheboygan. Now we understand that if we get caught there could be some charges but, we were wondering what exactly the charges would be and if its worth it to go airsofting in an abandoned building?

The town is small and may have only a few cops and the building is out in the country with maybe 2 farms near it.

can anyone tell me of any good factual websites about people wrongly committed to insane asylums in history? In my lit class we had to pick two books to read with something similar connecting them. I chose One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest and Girl, Interrupted. we have to do a paper based on a thesis statement about the novels and research to back up our statement. My thesis is " According to the standards established by society, the characters are not just 'crazy', they are certifiably crazy. Throughout history, society has dictated which norms are socially acceptable and which are not. The main characters in both of these novels have become the stereotypical 'lunatic'. However, in reality, their so called lunacy is a simple rejection from society." I would like some sites that talk (preferrably in depth) about people who have been deemed crazy and/or sent to a lunatic asylum because they didnt fit what was socially acceptable at the time. ex: homosexuals, social oucast "odd" people, victorian women sent by their husbands for not being "submissive" enough or just they could gain their estate

Victorian era - insane asylum? Mrs.Atwood becomes the gaurdian of Charlotte. Mrs. Atwood lost her daughter, a wild and spirited girl, many years ago--the daughter had eloped with a penniless Italian and had died giving a miscarriage. Charlotte is very much like Mrs. Atwood's daughter, so Mrs. Atwood believes that its her duty to guide Charlotte down the right road. But she becomes so obsessed in this...madness of trying to save Charlotte, becoming abusive and such. Mrs.Atwood begins to call Charlotte her daughter's name. Is this a good enough reason to put someone in an insane asylum??? Or, if you're a wealthy person, do they not put them in an insane asylum. What kind of asylums were there?

THANKS - That was It!!
The insane asylum!? The insane asylum!!!? A person reviewing people in an insane asylum walks around and is pleased with what he sees. He starts to review patients to see what they will do when they get out. He walks up to the first guy and sees him throwing a football around. He automatically knows that he wants to be a football player. He walks up to another guy and sees him throwing a baseball around. He could automatically tell that he wanted to be a baseball player. He walks to the next cell and sees a man with his penis in a bowl of peanuts. He flips out and asks what he is doing. The man replies "I'm f*****g nuts, I'm never getting out of here!"

Ozzy Osbourne in an insane asylum, and wackiness ensues!? Okay so I'm at this insane asylum (just visiting, okay?) and Ozzy Osbourne is a patient there. There's this little girl who I don't remember who she was or if I even knew her, but she wants to be a counselor when she grows up, so I asked if we could visit Ozzy in his room (he's a patient remember) because she wants to be a counselor. I mean, what could go wrong? So we go in and a guard goes in with us, and Ozzy seems completely cool with it, if she wants to ask him questions or whatever. Then Ozzy makes some kind of crude joke and the guard gets all pissed and grabs Ozzy from behind and puts him in a choke hold. And I'm trying to keep the little girl calm by telling her "it's just between them, he won't hurt us", or something like that. And at the same time I'm like leave Ozzy alone, he didn't do anything. The next part is I guess why Ozzy was in an insane asylum. He goes completely apesh!t and grabs something and slices the guard's throat all to hell. What you think? Oh and all I remember after that is me and the little girl driving some kind of little vehicle through some dark corridors with the dying guard looking for someone to help him. I don't remember what happened to Ozzy, but I don't hold what he did against him because the guard was being a real d!ck.

Identify a B&W movie about a woman in an insane asylum? I caught a portion of this movie on TV a while ago and was fascinated by it - never figured out what it is entitled - it's an old black and white movie about a woman who is a patient in a mental hospital who is subtly manipulative and charming. One of the hospital's employees (a psychiatrist, presumably) falls in love with her and is devastated when she has a lesbian tryst with another patient in the hospital, and ends up going insane himself. It seemed to be pretty edgy for its time - I wonder if anyone can tell me what movie this is. Thanks! This was my first experience with Yahoo Answers - I thought it probably wouldn't work, but got helpful responses within minutes. I'm in awe.
