Treatment Abuse, Behavior Modification, Thought Reform > World Wide Association of Specialty Programs and Schools (WWASPS)
Press Briefing in DC

?These people who want to stop all the progress because they have all the answers are wackos. They are just out of control,? Kay said.
Wackos?
Progress?
These educated, professional men and women are out of control?! - That's just to much - out of Your control maybe
" Nobody wants children abused, but opponents of the schools have not carefully thought out the impact of mandatory licensing and regulation of the facilities, Kay said."
Oh relax Kenny - its been thought over well enough.
If you think something important has been missed you should speak with the people working on the legislation - rather than calling them clowns and wackos!
?Where are they going to get this money and what is their plan?? asked Kay.
I have an idea - How about requiring 10% of all program owners and officer's income to go a fund to pay for the industry's oversight? If you really want to Help children, you shouldn't mind the sacrifice or the oversight. If your really about Huge profits, and warehousing teens in stark, negligent,and brutal conditions - it might be problematic enough to get you out of the business.
?What these clowns want to do is shut all these down as an option and in the meantime we don't have the proper options for everybody and they're not willing to listen.?
Creating proper options is largely what all this is about Kenny - did that get past you?
Really man - whose the Clown?
Nobodies laughing at Them!
:lol:

I have emailed atleast 5 different media organizations today in regard to the movie Self-Medicated, and the young man Monty Lapica who directed and wrote the movie. I'm hoping that he'll be able to shed some light on all this. The movie has it's premiere at the Hollywood Film Festival this Friday 10/21 at 4:00pm. It's been getting great reviews.

Ok, I'm not real familiar w/ the artsy film festival circut. How does a movie like this make it from there to the mainstream? What can we regular peasants do to help? I do have a couple of good old friends who are into that stuff. I'll be hitting them up about this and a couple of other things. Mean time, could you pose those questions to Marty and see if we can get a better understanding of how this works?
I am sick unto death of obscure English towns that exist seemingly for the sole accommodation of these so-called limerick writers -- and even sicker of their residents, all of whom suffer from physical deformities and spend their time dismembering relatives at fancy dress balls.

Monty had to raise money ($1 million) independently, which is no easy task.
Whatever happened to Coldwater, The Movie?
Anonymous:
Distributors who go to the screenings buy the movie, and distribute it to INDEPENDENT movie venues. As I understand it, Self Medicated is expected to be available in DVD format in a couple of months. It's also possible it could be bought by a television network such as Lifetime or CBS, Disney, etc. which would bring it into the homes of millions of viewers!
