What you endured was, I am sure, tragic and hideous but it is not Janice's fault that she misunderstood your point...and it is certainly not justifiable, the cruel insults you hurled her way. She is in no way deserving of such battering.

Karen you miss the point. My personal pain is not the issue. The issue is forced treatment.
I have nothing to apologize for.I have no intention of Lightening Up on an issue as serious as this.
My comments were thoughtful and well meant. It is certainly not my fault if you misinterpret them.
Friends don't call friends cruel. Lighten up. Consider an apology.
Violent and homocidal people should not be allowed to hide behind the label "mentally ill".
This is an opinion, not a battering. This is a position in favor of protecting the innocent not an insult.When people refuse to take a stand , it does become their fault. That is why I spoke out.
