    What is the diagnostic test for euthanizing people who are "that far gone" and who gets to administer it? Also, how do we get around that pesky eighth amendment?

      Diagnostic test: They say batshit insane stuff, who administers: cops administer it (they have no problem doing the administering for non-white people) or they forcibly get admitted in a mental asylum.

      Just ask me? I mean when you're saying you're "the messiah" and threatening to kill children, I think its time to go for a nice dirt nap

          So we hop em up with drugs, let them back into society where they stop taking the drugs then revert back into a child murdering messiah?
