Dangerous Precedents

Mr. James Lico, who is an Oregon resident and targeted individual, once made the claim in one of the TI chat rooms that persons with mental illness or dementia could be starved to death in Oregon mental hospitals. Since this was an alarming claim, I finally decided to research it online and discovered that legislation had been drafted to allow this to be true. Sample article: "Elderly patients at risk of forced starvation in Oregon." They are at risk of facing death through starvation and dehydration. link:

The legislation in question was House Bill 4135 (which passed March 16, 2018), a revised version of a previous Oregon Senate bill 494. Other links about the Oregon legislation:

This certainly sets a dangerous precedent. Other states with similar euthanasia legislation could possibly follow suit. How does this mesh with actual murder and crazy-driving squads many reported TI's are confronting? It sets us on a road which could become a convenient tool of dictatorship, a means of eliminating opposition.

Other TI's have reported on their dilemmas from Oregon in the chat rooms and on the web. Two notable ones are Ella Free (who runs Tuesday and Thursday night chats) and Todd Giffen. Todd Giffen had a very informative and well written website at which he introduced Dr. Robert Duncan, a  government whistleblower and author. Giffen subsequently ended up in an Oregon state mental hospital and now is serving time in prison.

A primary annual TI day rally is set to occur in Portland, Oregon in August, 2019.
