It may just be me, but something has always bugged me. We all know Straight says they were a drug/behavior treatment center. The truth is they were NOT a drug rehab in any way shape or form. Helen Peterman didnt even have a high school diploma. Betty Sembler had NO experience or qualifications to be identifying drug addicts, we all know that staff did not have the qualifications. I can say in the time I spent there , I would hazard to guess that only a few would have really qualified as a "drug addict". So, can we please delete all references to it being a "drug rehab". They were certified by no organization. They were not JACO approved although they used their seal, they used it fraudulently. It is an unfair label to us all to say it was a "drug rehab". I really hate them being called that because they had NOTHING that qualified them as such. They had no doctors, nurses, shrinks nothing so why do we keep refering to them as a drug rehab. They werent plain and simple.
We all know that Betty had about as much qualifications as a worm.
So, although it would be time consuming can we please remove that language from the sites?

The governor of California, during Synanon's rise to pop culture fame, changed the laws that governed treatment being administered by unqualified douchebags to practice behavior modification on drug addicts.

--- Quote ---"Other forms of behavior modification techniques employ intensive "encounter sessions" in which individuals are required to participate in group therapy discussions where intensive pressure is often placed on the individuals to accept the attitudes of the group... Once the individual is submissive, his personality can begin to be reformed around attitudes determined by the program director to be acceptable. Similar to the highly refined "brainwashing" techniques employed by the North Koreans in the early nineteen fifties, the method is used in the treatment of drug abusers... "The Seed", a drug abuse treatment program in Florida that, until recently, received funding from the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare, is based on a similar philosophy."
 INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS AND THE FEDERAL ROLE IN BEHAVIOR MODIFICATION by the COMMITTEE ON THE JUDICIARY, UNITED STATES SENATE, Subcommittee on Constitutional Rights, November, 1974, pp. 15 - 16 describing The Seed.

Somehow, between 1974 and 1977-78, someone decided that brainwashing was okay, and not subject to any rules

Did it extend to children who didn't do drugs? No one knows. No one even knows when that started, or who gave permission

Find the answer to that, and you'll have the key to taking down the programs that exist today

It would be grounds for a huge class action lawsuit

California would be the best place to file :)


--- Quote ---Mr. Morantz participated pro bono in Molko v. Holy Spirit Association for the Unification of World Christianity in 1988, along with another anti-cult lawyer, Ford Greene, wherein the California Supreme Court determined consistent with the free exercise clause of the First Amendment to the United States Constitution and of article I, section 4, of the California Constitution, former members of a religious organization may sue that organization on various causes of action arising out of its allegedly deceptive recruitment practices.
 
The court held the act of Brainwashing was outrageous conduct and victims could recover civil and punitive damages for its application. Unification Church members were accused of denying their religious affiliation in order to lure prospective recruits to camps where there beliefs could be psychologically manipulated through behavior modification techniques

Interesting replies,I was hoping that those that own a Straight or straight spin off site would do us all a favor and remove "drug treatment" center from their site and from the description of Straight as we all know they stole and fraudulently used the JACO seal and forged many documents.
They were not in any way shape or form a drug rehab. So, lets not keep the lie going. After all that is their main statement oh they are a bunch of druggies. Its hard to say that if Straight was not a drug a rehab which they weren't.
So , I hope webmasters will remove that language and use "cult" or at best umm. wow cant think of anything but "cult"
Call it like it is. Not what they fraudulently want folks to believe.
Yes, that means you Betty Sembler , Betty the felon.

At the risk of being redundant, group is over. You no longer get brownie points for tearing other survivors down. BTW you are only showing your lack of vocabulary, but I do understand you are most likely a mole who just cant stand the truth. If Betty has reduced herself to placing moles like you here who apparently have little educationg i.e. vocabulary than it only shows her desperation. Seriously, you really cant think of any constructive input? Wait i know you just want an arguement. Sorry, I am not going to waste my time arguing with you but i will hope and pray that you heal soon.
