someone needs a psych exam and it IS NOT ms fisher!
JUDGE ORDERS WORLD CAN'T WAIT ACTIVIST TO JAIL PSYCH UNIT
CAROL FISHER REMAINS STRONG AND UNAPOLOGETIC
May 9: Judge Timothy McGinty forcibly incarcerated Carol Fisher in the psych unit of the Cuyahoga County Jail in downtown Cleveland, where she now sits for an indefinite period of time.
In a hastily called hearing yesterday, Judge McGinty made a highly unusual and outrageous decision to force Carol to undergo a state psychological exam as part of her pre-sentencing investigation. From the very start of Carol's case, the judge has openly said that she must have mental problems for resisting an unlawful and brutal encounter with Cleveland Heights police. He went even further in yesterday's hearing, saying that her opposition to the Bush regime makes her "delusional."
The small courtroom on the 21st floor of the Justice Center was ringed with 5 armed court bailiffs. McGinty started off the hearing by making Carol stand up and had one of her attorneys read her t-shirt, which said:
"Wanted for Illegally Crossing Borders: The Bush Regime
"If you are going to insist that crossing borders illegally is a crime which cannot be tolerated, how about George Bush, Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Condoleezza Rice (and yes, Colin Powell) and the rest of that gang, with their highly illegal, and violent, 'crossing of the border'-into Iraq, among other places?!"
McGinty then said this was proof of her delusion! He also kept saying Carol "wants" to go to jail, and that she has a "martyr complex." When Carol tried to explain why she wouldn't take this test, the judge's only response was, "I do not negotiate with felons."......
at the end of the article there are a few things you can do INCLUDING calling the judge at the phone number provided

Velcome to ze New Vorld Order.
This is sick. Thanks much for posting it. I'll be looking into it a bit more (if there's anything out there). I suppose, then, we're all in need of psychiatric help!
Wow...what's that battlecry of the right again? Activist judges? What an ass.
Good to know you like the Sox :-)
This was a Soviet tactic back in the days of the USSR. Political dissidents were simply declared delusional or insane and locked up. Welcome to the Soviet States of America.
this makes me very sad for many reasons ... amazing how circumstances can tumble one into a hellish place ... this woman should have been rewarded from jump street for manifesting the spirit of freedom and democracy by expressing herself ... the "system" is indeed set up to protect the masters of war ... the judge is a piece of shit, an ignorant piece of shit ... like so many of 'em ... I don't think calling him will help this woman ... or at least I'd check with the lawyer, who sounds like a decent bloke ... but now she's out ... apparently posted bond or something ... that's good ... I predict she'll be given a choice of probation with virtually impossible conditions or else put in the slammer ... I'd like to know more of the facts ... sounds like some trumped up bullshit ...rose you have a huge heart ...
no6-seems like mr shock did more research or the site was updated since i read it (i've not looked again yet, i'm trying to answer my comments first). can you imagine being locked up for expressing what is guaranteed to us under the constitution?
jeremy- the judge does indeed appear to be a gatsu piedi. we lost last night, but we did take those TWO games out of three from you know who!
newsguy, it DOES remind me of a gulag. we are at a very frightening place in our country. i never thought it COULD happen here
mr shock, how elequent you are! i didn't call the judge myself for two reasons, 1 i didn't think he'd accept calls and 2 i thought i might piss him off even more and he'd take that out on her
as for my heart (and i've said it before here) sometimes it's two sizes too small BUT sometimes, it's three sizes too big (i do have that grinch tattoo with the concentric circles in his heart
Nice to see the principles of free speach, & that justice are blind are still being upheld in today's USA!
here from Micheles today
I hadn't heard this one, but nothing would surprise me any more.
Hear about the book that's come out called, The Kingdom Coming? I think the author's name is Michelle Goldberg, haven't read it, but heard her interviewed on NPR.
What she terms the "Christian Nationalists" are systematically trying to usurp control of government and society, including redefining science.
It's truly a frightening sounding book. Sounds like she really knows her stuff and has the facts, figures, names, organizations, and what they do, to back up what would have sounded like something from a wild sci-fi novel 30 years ago.
OMG Gestapo tactics in the court room. I would like to post on this and link to your post on it, if that would be alright?
mrs a-it is simply hard to believe much less REALLY HAPPENING. thanks for stopping by
darius-no i've not heard of the book, but i'll keep a look out for it. thanks to you too for stopping by
static brain- YOU DO NOT HAVE TO ASK of course you may cross post this!
Rose, when I wrote about this story last Thursday, I had idiots commenting on my blog that she deserved it. This is the kind of inane mentality that has festered in this country ever since our Commander-in-Thief took office. All we can do is keep spreading the truth and revealing the lies until that SOB and his minions receive the 3 I's: Impeachment, Indictment and Incarceration!
robert, WHO i want to know WHO can support this regime? are they that blind? don't they HEAR the lies? see OUR men and women DYING and being MAIMED (not even counting the tens of thousands of iraqis)? feel the money being ripped out of our pockets? do they think tracking OUR phone calls is a way to find terrorists? well i'm guessing i'm preaching to the choir here. damn we must ALL wake up!
