Bringing this over from the last thread:

on top of the govt shutdown. :rolleyes: yeah that's terrible.

Tftnt.

Well, fortunately, it doesn't sound as though anyone died, not even the child.
It's just still really horrible, though. |
As we know now, the woman's been shot dead by the police. Apparently, she's been mentally ill and suffered from postpartum depression.
Obviously, it needs to be investigated why police thought it necessary to act the way they did. OT: Any ideas for a new thread title? :) |
Postpartum psychosis, which is rare (but an actual thing) and much, much worse.
Her sisters were on television, one's a nurse and the other a retired police officer. Now, obviously, they have an obvious bias in this story, but they seemed to indicate that the police may have been hasty and unduly "effective" in removing whatever threat this poor woman posed. As for titles? Poverty is the mother of crime. ~Marcus Aurelius If you don't get enough time-outs as a child, you get them as a grownup. ~Andrew Bonifacio It is hard to say whether doctors of law or divinity have made the greater advances in the lucrative business of mystery. ~Edmund Burke The houses of lawyers are roofed with the skins of litigants. ~Welsh Proverb |
For titles:
Everyday there's crime. The woman obviously had mental problems. |
It may sound like a pretty mundane thing to suggest, but why didn't they simply shoot at the tires or something like that?
And, whoa, that's a great many title suggestions, thank you :D They're all awesome, but maybe we should go for one of the shorter ones? |
Well, there you go. :)
The shortest title of them all. And, yeah, that poor woman had diagnosed mental problems. So it's beyond doubt, isn't it? |
I guess my title won.
I wonder if this woman took her medication while this happened. quaist, what did you think of the articles I gave you to read? |
While it happened? I doubt it.
But, I know what you mean. Obviously, something happened with the care she was receiving. Of course, now we'll never know. May I ask, though, what's your particular fascination with David Berkowitz? I mean, he's hardly the most "successful" serial killer or the only one who's still alive or even the only one to have claimed satanic links... I'd love to have the discussion you seem interested in having, but it was all so long ago that I'm not finding a hook, you know? |
His methods. How he was clever at some parts f his plan.
I think he joined a cult. Got way gung ho in it that he started to have delusions about demons. That is how he got introduced in the devil bible. I just learned about him last Monday on an episode of Twisted. |

What he did is basically the subject matter of nightmares, and it's even scarier in my view how he supposedly did a 360 and dared even to lecture the public about gun control. Seems like a man of a whole lot contradictions, who gives me the creeps to be honest. |
Fair enough, thank you for the response, Amethyst.
According to Wikipedia, the cult thing... you have to take his word on it. At first he said he was in one, then he recanted... Personally, I don't think you need to be a Satanist to be a serial killer, but I suppose it adds to the mystique. Which is probably what he wanted. Meanwhile, something kinda awesome has happened in Saudi Arabia: Quote:
However, they've actually taken the death of a child, and a girl child at that, seriously. Ten to one, it's because the man is thorn in the government's side, but I'll take it. |
