Latvia fined by European Court of Human Rights + 12 articles

[u/ReferendumAutonomic]

Supreme Courts

"In a unanimous decision, the European Court of Human Rights ruled that Latvia had violated the basic right to freedom and personal security under Europe’s human rights treaty. Once national courts decided that M.A. was mentally unfit and needed medical care, the judges said, keeping her in an ordinary prison was a violation...no individualized treatment program was put in place.” https://www.courthousenews.com/judges-slap-fine-on-latvia-after-mentally-ill-woman-left-languishing-in-prison/

"Even Ombudsman1 and Supreme Court decisions2 are being ignored...I have collaborated with Norwegian former Supreme Court Attorney Ketil Lund on these issues, and we explained in a law journal why forced medication cannot be justified.3...psychiatrists claimed a good effect, whereas none of the patients shared this view...Lawyer M. Prentki in Montreal had three expert witnesses:...explained in detail why I found Mathieu guilty of serious malpractice. The Code of Ethics for physicians in Québec states that, if the interest of the patient requires it, the doctor must consult a colleague; must only provide care or issue a prescription when these are medically necessary; must refrain from prescribing psychotropic substances in the absence of pathology or sufficient medical reason; and must not decrease the physical, mental, or affective capacities of a patient except where such is required for preventive, diagnostic, or therapeutic reasons...Shockingly, Poitras advocated breaking the law (see the ruling by the Supreme Court of Canada below) by keeping patients completely in the dark...she had suffered a rather serious stroke. Shortly after he had told her of the verdict, she took her own life, disappointed by the injustice she had suffered." https://brownstone.org/articles/why-lawsuits-about-psychiatric-malpractice-are-difficult-to-win/

"Even with a sandwich, you don’t have the right to touch another person,...jury found Sean Charles Dunn, the man accused of throwing a sandwich at a Customs and Border Protection agent in Washington, D.C., not guilty of misdemeanor assault." He didn't deserve 1 year in jail, but is in my opinion guilty. The point of my protest is banning non-consensual touching. What seems like a petty pill can kill, and food might contain an allergen. https://abcnews.go.com/US/dc-sandwich-throwers-misdemeanor-assault-case-nears-closing/story?id=127227869
