Due to ethnocentrism and Christofascism, we once frowned on the quaint practice of cannibalism, which was celebrated by sacred indigenous peoples throughout the world until colonialism spoiled the fun. But we are more enlightened now. From deep blue Connecticut:

Tyree Smith … was found not guilty of murder by reason of insanity following a trial in July 2013 and ordered committed to a state psychiatric hospital for 60 years.

As we have known at least since John Hinckley exploited it to escape justice after shooting Ronald Reagan, the insanity defense is even more insane than the maniacs it benefits.

[T]his week, the state Psychiatric Security Review Board, ruled that Smith, after spending 10 years in the state’s most secure psychiatric hospital, is ready to be transitioned into the community. He has since been released…

The board says Smith “has continued to demonstrate clinical stability.” So we’ll let bygones be bygones regarding homicide and cannibalism.

The defense’s case rested mainly on the testimony of Yale University psychiatrist Dr. Reena Kapoor, who said at the time Smith retained his lust for human flesh after his arrest, even offering to eat her.

That’s how you get away with killing a guy with an ax and eating his brain and eyeballs. Tell a psychiatrist you want to do the same to her.

Kapoor claimed Smith suffered from psychotic incidents since childhood and heard voices that told him to kill people. She said the voices ordered Smith to eat the victim’s brain so they would get a better understanding of human behavior and the eyes so that they could see into the “spirit realm.”

Just the kind of guy the liberal establishment would turn out onto the streets. Ideally, he’ll get hold of a gun and head for the nearest grade school; then the media can exploit the incident to attack the Second Amendment.

Tyree Smith is on the right side of history, assuming liberals prevail.

On a tip from Wiggins.
