In 1883, Pennsylvania formed the Committee on Lunacy to supervise the state's treatment of the the mentally ill.
The Committee was particularly focused on the way asylum-keepers were handling the "criminally insane," who in the 19th century were housed with the general population of lunatics.
The Committee, which succeeded in building separate institutions for the criminally insane, was eventually disbanded, but the time has come to reconvene the group—and give it national oversight.
I'm calling on you to volunteer your time and join the Committee on Lunacy 2.0.
Our mission is simple: to find ways to isolate the criminally insane from the rest of the population.
Although dangerous lunatics abound, under our committee's immediate consideration are four persons of particular interest:
- Republican Congressman Paul Gosar, who posted a video to social media that depicts him killing Democrat Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and attacking President Joe Biden with a sword.
- Teen vigilante Kyle Rittenhouse, who pleaded not guilty to six charges of first-degree homicide in the shooting deaths of two protestors in Kenosha, Wisconsin. Rittenhouse was armed with an AR-15.
- Rapper Travis Scott, who incited 50,000 fans to stampede the stage at a Houston concert last weekend, resulting in the deaths of eight people. The victims were trampled to death.
- Former President Donald Trump, who in the final year of his administration promoted his bellhop to run the Presidential Personnel Office (PPO), deputizing the 29-year-old to ferret out political enemies. Trump aides compared the PPO under the bellhop's control to the Gestapo. (Before his promotion, the bellhop had been fired from the White House for concealing large gambling wins from the FBI, but Trump promoted him anyway.)
I you wish to join our committee, please send me an email.
Please note, you must be able to silly-walk.
