Shot Glass Thought: Me, Generally Speaking

Generally speaking, if you have to say "Come on stop, you're better than this." to someone, then they are not. Also generally speaking, having a raving mad lunatic accost you on the side of the road for money because the government is trying to have him killed is a good way to reflect on what you've accomplished so far in life. I find that it's because when in that situation, I always feel like I'm about to die. There is no polite way to disengage the man or woman. You have to give them some version of "I'm leaving forcefully because I'm afraid of you." But you have to communicate "I'm somehow more dangerous than you, leave me alone or you won't exist much longer." All with your body language I mean. Some people have recommended to me that I just ignore the crazy and walk on like nothing has happened. But that strategy also involves turning your back on a potentially violent and certainly disconnected person. So there doesn't really seem to be a way to win. Well one strategy that might work could be...Eugenics! Yeah, I mean we don't need everybody right? Just kidding, we just need to start kicking the dangerous ones out of the shelters during the coldest nights. No need for sweeping government change, just a local policy adjustment. Keep coming back to this site because I have all the answers, it's just a matter of time before I hand them all out.
