Turning in Big Brother

It is by a very rare happening that I would find myself in a place such as this. A United States government mental institution after all is not what I call a preferred place of dwelling. Yet one day, my home became disabled and so our government locked me away in a mental institution for asking the social service system for some assistance.

I witnessed some unacceptable activities while imprisoned as an innocent person. Human rights violations, abuse and neglect. I feel obligated ethically to speak out but I am as well outraged by being treated as I was. Just prior to my then previously announced KGO radio campaign I was harassed in person and was accused of the possibilities of terrorism by Fresno County government after speaking out.

I'm making a stand. I'm making a stand to empower my freedoms and to empower a united resolve for the quality of care and essential liberties of disabled Americans forced under the care of the government. I believe that what I witnessed and how I was treated by the government is not entirely uncommon.

And thus begins the story of a man who was forcibly placed in a mental institution when his home became disabled.

This story will show the risk involved in having a mental disability.
