Only a few months earlier, in late 2005, Crystal had been committed by her family for depression and bipolar. She was released with the warning that a second commitment meant not only a much longer stay, but this time her kids would be taken away. Thus, on March 14, when Crystal was brought to a mental health facility - i.e., the detox center - she freaked. She had to come with some excuse for her erratic behavior. The reason Crystal cried rape is because detox centers are not equipped for rape 'victims' - those must be taken to a hospital facility. Crystal's lie served its purpose. It got her out of the detox center, which was all she wanted. <BR/><BR/>Who could have realized that lie would then serve so many other purposes? The SANE nurse's feminist agenda, Gottlieb's hatred of Duke students, Nifong's failing election, the Gang's self-serving politics, the media's hunger for a scandal, etc.<BR/><BR/>Oh, what a tangled web!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32542246.post-9418823190793760272007-04-01T23:35:00.000-04:002007-04-01T23:35:00.000-04:00Hook 'em Horns 12:29At this point in time I just h...Hook 'em Horns 12:29<BR/><BR/>At this point in time I just have to stay with the Bloggers as the best and brightest...with KC at the head of the list.<BR/><BR/>I just hate to imagine what would have happened to the three guys if they Bloggers were not around.<BR/><BR/>You might have missed the Video but at the Moms March in Durham a month or so ago, one older women said she would not have know about the Moms March or the problem itself if it were not for the Bloggers.<BR/><BR/>Got to love the older woman and her honest statement of appreciation. <BR/><BR/>GPGary Packwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05177986821224068759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32542246.post-44169006154379375452007-04-01T23:24:00.000-04:002007-04-01T23:24:00.000-04:00Debrah 11:11Great comments.

People like him are the only chance anyone has for changing the horrific conditions on university campuses.<BR/><BR/>In the fall of 2001 he spoke at Memorial Hall on the UNC-CH campus. Of course, this was to be a "controversial" speech that evening. James Moeser, the chancellor and resident organ player from the 60's generation--(a stiff pipe organ must have been all the rage with the hippies at that time...LOL!!!....think a balding Clay Aiken in commune regalia)--was too much of a wuss to show up to greet Horowitz as is the way things are usually done.<BR/><BR/>It was an eerie night and I attended on the spur of the moment. What I experienced was a heavy dose of Richard Brodhead's current roadhouse show at Duke.<BR/><BR/>In the U.S we think free speech and respect for the rights of others is a given; however, attending that evening, I have never felt so "invaded" and "stalked".<BR/><BR/>There was a group of black UNC students who had organized---as usual---in order to create a spectacle and disrupt Horowitz's program.<BR/><BR/>But the real show from these troublemakers was before the lecture began. This group of protesters were stalking those of us in the audience to see if they could find someone to approach for an argument.<BR/><BR/>I suppose I kind of stood out with my Morrocan jumpsuit and cape---an Urban Explorer garb---and as I stood exchanging courtesies with a policeman and thanking him for his presence, a very large woman student in the form of Mr. Barber of the NAACP came close to me....listening to my every word and then proceeded to follow behind me until I took my seat. She sat down directly behind me and began asking me why I was thanking the policeman.<BR/><BR/>I must tell you.....people have been put in jail for less unprovoked harassment than this woman was throwing my way.<BR/><BR/>She and her group were determined to start some kind of "event" for the newspapers....to bring attention to themselves.<BR/><BR/>I ignored her at first. Then after explaining to her that this was not Iran and that she should discontinue her stalking mode, she finally got up and joined her friends after much coaxing from one of her buddies.<BR/><BR/>I think she got the vibe that if she kept bothering me she might get ahold of a bigger bitch than her previous victims.<BR/><BR/>I had a chance to chat with some of the students in the audience and they said that they have to deal with this type of overt harassment all the time.<BR/><BR/>There was one very seriously sweet student--a black guy who came to hear Horowitz and was apparently conservative politically. He took refuge near me because I think he felt he might left alone by the rabblerousers.<BR/><BR/>It was a moment right out of the third-rate film "A Handmaid's Tale" (circa 1990)....the one that was filmed in Durham at the old Michael Peterson mansion with Faye Dunaway and Robert Duval....where everyone was forced to live a robotic life with no free expression.<BR/><BR/>It was the first time in my life I have ever experienced such a moment and it has stayed with me.<BR/><BR/>For a few years in the 80's I was living in Roppongi and in Akasaka, Tokyo. I flew to Seoul, Korea for a week once and I got the same feeling there a couple of times when the black helicopters flew overhead in the afternoon at the downtown Hotel Lotte.<BR/><BR/>The environment on university campuses today is nothing to joke about.<BR/><BR/>Our very freedom of speech---of life---is at stake.<BR/><BR/>DebrahAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32542246.post-27718001682392666912007-04-01T23:01:00.000-04:002007-04-01T23:01:00.000-04:00Anonymous 7:40 said:...Could you please direct me ...Anonymous 7:40 said:<BR/><BR/>...Could you please direct me to something that could explain in detail just exactly what is involved in being committed to a detox/rehab unit like Durham Access? I have heard that it is a mandatory 3 days, in only one place, nothing else gives details. <BR/><BR/>I am quite familiar with ACCESS Centers as I have prepared studies for organizations that fund ACCESS centers.<BR/><BR/>You first need to know that ACCESS is the new buzz phrase in health care. ACCESS almost always means helping women and children find ACCESS to health care. And we are talking about women who are battered. And yes, the see men. <BR/><BR/>The Office of Student Affairs at Duke and the Office of Student Affairs at the AAB University in Durham will know the people very VERY well at Durham Access.<BR/><BR/>This particular ACCESS Center's claim to fame is that it is open 24 hours per day.<BR/><BR/>If any patient walks into the ACCESS Center and is acutely ill or injured, they call 911. There are no exceptions.<BR/><BR/>Usually a physician will need to sign off on anything that is related to detoxification treatment. <BR/><BR/>There are usually Registered Nurses at an Access Center but not physicians and... I'll let you imagine that fight.<BR/><BR/>The three day rule you are talking about is a product of socialized medicine in Europe, not the USA. In the USA you get care based on your needs, your insurance coverage (Medicare and Medicaid Included) and how many days the ACCESS Center can provide services to you free of charge if you have no money.<BR/><BR/>Funding organizations see ACCESS Centers as the Camels Nose Under The Tent Flap. They seem innocent until they open their doors and then become money sucking monsters. <BR/><BR/>There is no end to Access Centers. They are everywhere. <BR/><BR/>In Texas and New Mexico, the hospitals allow the Access Center to operate until they are broke and then close them down or they take them over. <BR/><BR/>The next question is why the Durham Access Center is not a Federally Qualified Health Center. I not bother making you read about that issue. <BR/><BR/>The same logic holds true for why you don't see The Duke Medical Center involved with these Access Centers.Gary Packwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05177986821224068759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32542246.post-32243101107864565552007-04-01T22:47:00.000-04:002007-04-01T22:47:00.000-04:00if you can't figure out what ya'll is/means, you n...if you can't figure out what ya'll is/means, you need to get out more. welcome to the internet and blogging. no rules here.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32542246.post-19066671948551675192007-04-01T22:43:00.000-04:002007-04-01T22:43:00.000-04:00Georgia Girl, there are some pretty obvious reason...Georgia Girl, there are some pretty obvious reasons for posting anonymously that are kind of ordinery, actually.
