the dominant psychiatric model is healthy? Acceptance of State control and violence is healthy? Kids who don't meekly obey school rules must be controlled with drugs? These are the people you want deciding? If not the perverse shrinks, what Authority would decide? It is common for tyrannies to "re-educate" those who oppose them.

I'll take my chances on the effort to educate through voluntary means even knowing some nuts will go off now and then. Otherwise the nuts will all gravitate to legalized enforcement agencies and we'll have zero defenses.
