Raub threatened with drugs and brainwashing by psychiatrist..

Glenn Beck interviewd Raub's attorney, who told him:

"Further, in a surprising twist, Whitehead revealed a startling allegation that his client told him about prior to his release. Raub complained to his attorney that one of the psychiatrists that he was seeing threatened to “brainwash” him and force him to take medication."

“That really scared him,” he said.

Why am I

Not surprised that seeing this story has been touched by Glenn Beck that It would present about 1% truth and 99% spin to of course take shots at anyone out there questioning the "official reports" that come out of the propaganda mill.

"I have found that being rich is not about having the most but about needing the least"

Contradictory stories

This story is in direct contradiction to what Raub himself said in a phone interview with Adam vs. The Man. He said that he hadn't been given any drugs, and he'd been treated fine.

Psychiatry is not about mental health and not able to deliver it

It has a sordid and bloody history and has been a political tool and weapon form its inception.

Beck comes across as an

Beck comes across as an insincere jackass.

That said, at least this will wake up some of Beck's phony teaparty listeners.

Surreal and sad

- It was bad enough before any mention of brainwashing or forced medication.

- It was bad enough before learning that, in Virginia, there were 20,000 cases of "civil commitment" per year.

- It was bad enough before John Whitehead reported that, as of this case making the news, veterans have been contacting the Rutherford Institute from around the country saying that, like Raub, they also had been unlawfully sent to psych wards.

It pertained to a different issue (the never-ending Afghanistan war), but I'm reminded of this quote by an Army vet: "All the 'support the troops' stuff is bumper sticker deep."

Via The Blaze:"To be clear,

Via The Blaze:

"To be clear, Raub is a 9/11 “truther” and harbors some pretty questionable beliefs."

Oh. So, believing that buildings don't magically fall in on themselves at free fall speeds from an office fire is a questionable belief? What an Orwellian world this has turned into where "truther" is used as a derogatory remark. Thanks for running this story Beck, but Im reminded why I rarely visit your site.

Why does Alex Jones insert a "submit to fear" subliminal message in his movies?

"Truther" as degrading?

Agreed, I find it beyond belief that we're living in a society in which someone who is seeking the truth is called crazy. How can our machines continue to fly if we don't seek the truth about physics? Mind-boggling.

I love you. I'm sorry. Please forgive me. Thank you.

After recalling Beck's

After recalling Beck's totally childish attack on Debra Medina over her innocent remark on 9/11, his latest attack on Raub isn't surprising either. Beck is an IGNORANT, pompous jackass to put it mildly.

I agree

about Beck, but this morning on his radio program he has been talking about this case and more. A caller who is a psychiatrist in Florida said she has never seen a state law written as broadly as Virginia's. So, anyway, although Beck is an idiot, at least he is covering this situation.

All I can say is:

I just bookmarked that attorney's organization's website Rutherford.org and I strongly suggest every liberty minded person does. Hopefully I will never need it.

I am not frightened of terrorism, so don't go and create a police state on my account.

As soon as I heard that that

As soon as I heard that that marine was threatened to be brainwashed and drugged I instantly thought about the CO ( so called) shooter, when he was all drugged up in court and couldn't comprehend anything. There are things in common there...

Nice..

Threatened with drugs for speaking the truth. Only in america.. Not to worry though, "The Romulan" is going to rescue us from the tyranny.....lol..

Hopefully, this tragic case

Hopefully, this tragic case will serve as a basis from repealing these unconstitutional laws as I can't imagine any of these laws conforming to ANY constitution of ANY state in the union.

Interesting comment from Brandon's lawyer:

"Whitehead said that veterans have since been contacting him from across the country claiming they too were victims of wrongful detention in psychiatric institutes like Raub. Apparently, there are civil commitment laws in other states as well, he said."

So this is evidently part of some master plan to silence military vets, as we suspected.

What

do you want to bet that those vets will no longer be able to purchase firearms because of the "mental health" issue.

Excellent point and quite

Excellent point and quite true!

Thank goodness Raub has a great, supportive

family, and friends that did not let this criminal kidnap go unnoticed.

Can we fly Raub to the RP Festival & to Ron Paul's event??

Can someone start a fundraiser for this guy? He certainly deserves to be there, if for no other reason than that he suffered a great deal for the sake of liberty!!

thanks for posting
