Stigma in full

"A community health program manager got a surprise when she e-mailed her NH Senator recently to ask him about why he had voted to cut money from mental health programs. The Senator told her that society would be better without disabled people, and he wishes he could ship disabled people to Siberia."

Um... what the fuck? I read this and then read it again, and then read it a third time. He confirmed to the newspaper that he said this, and meant it. It's not like she made up the emails. He really does think the mentally ill, addicted, etc. are a financial burden that we shouldn't have to carry along.

If ever there was a time to write your senator about something, it would be about censuring this guy for being an idiot. I can not believe people think like that.
