The Voice of Treason

I’m not manic-depressive, I’m bipolar!

Our city has a new serial murderer. He killed five people, including two police officers, and all he had to say when he stood before the judge is that he wasn’t happy about his appearance. He said, because he wasn’t given the opportunity to groom himself, his hair looked “crazy” and the jumpsuit he was forced to wear made him look like Elvis.

He has also pointed out that these murders are not his fault. He’s bipolar. Since he’s on a fixed income, he can’t afford his meds, so he shot five people. Get used to it.

His lawyer says he’s innocent because he’s insane. So what are you saying, sir? Everyone who is bipolar is insane? Well, then shouldn’t all these bipolar citizens be institutionalized? These people shouldn’t have jobs, own homes, drive cars, or have children. Keep the sharp objects and guns away from them.

Where are the bipolars out there who could come forward to say that this one doesn’t represent them and the rest of the loving, peaceful bipolars of the world?
