    I mean, on the one hand I agree.

    On the other hand, if you dream of murdering babies or crashing planes, perhaps the hospital or airline you work for should be informed.

      Real talk though, you can’t punish thought crimes.

      Who TF dreams of crashing planes that does not fly planes? The incidence of plane-crash-dreamers is most certainly highly concentrated amongst pilots.

      As are those who dream of killing babies concentrated around those who spend time around them.

      Most of us use our brains to filter out things that we don’t want to come to actualization. But the bad thoughts are in there. 94% of us will experience intrusive thoughts at some point in our lives. All to jail?

        And yet you think people should have their guns taken away for their thoughts or their words, so what makes you think you’re any better?

        But the bad thoughts are in there. 94% of us will experience intrusive thoughts at some point in our lives. All to jail?

        Imagine treating intrusive thoughts and killing babies as somehow equivalent. And that psychologists aren’t trained to know the difference and who to flag, and who not to. At least that’s what you’d say when pushing for red flag laws.

      Or like get it solved before it becomes a problem? And have a professional medical opinion reccomend if you should work somewhere to not based on a risk assessment, not just a blanket statement

        Ok, but the alternative is knowing a nurse directly in charge of infants wants to murder them and still letting her go into work. You’re basically an accomplice at that point.
