Changes needed insupport for mentally ill
I think a reasonable analogy for police interventions in mental illness cases would be safety barriers and cars. When we need them to stop something, the situation is bad, and someone is probably going to get hurt. The time for the actions that gave a better chance for a good outcome have passed. The institutions mentioned in the article as not being more critical of police actions are no doubt aware of this, as they are aware that prevention and treatment would require changes in how support for the mentally ill is provided and funded. I'm not sure the will and resources to do this are available.

Republicans shouldn’t cut Medicare, raise age
Why do Republicans hate elderly Americans, at least those who aren't millionaires? Republicans in Congress want to make life harder for our elderly by attacking Social Security and Medicare.

Watch handicap card placement in car
Just a word of caution. People who drive around with their blue handicap cards hanging from their rearview mirror can be pulled over and given a ticket for obstruction of view. I have read this in the court section of the paper; people are paying fines.

We need fewer radar guns, more patrolmen
As sad and demonic as are the shootings in Newtown, Conn. and other schools, malls, businesses, etc. around our nation, it is not the fault of the weapons used, but the demoralization of our society and the failures of the governmental, judicial, law enforcement and education systems.

Town offices should offer equal not special rights
I could say shame on Maine for allowing gay marriage, but I have to say shame on some Maine towns taking advantage of the gay marriage vote. These towns are opening their doors to city hall on a Saturday to allow citizens to get a marriage license on the first day gay marriage becomes legal.
