My mother and all of her sisters had Alzheimer's and it didn't affect them until they were in their 80's. sid says he's in his late 40s so I highly doubt he's suffering any effects from this alledged disease at this point. Alzheimer's affects one's MEMORY, it doesn't turn them into belligerent, bigoted assholes who conciously and systematically act like scumbags behind the scenes and spend better parts of their days deliberately causing trouble on a freakin' internet board.

So tell me Ken, you're in Law Enforcement correct? When a suspect kills someone, do you let him off when he tells you he did it because he was having a bad day?

Bill...Altzheimers affects people differently. I have an aunt that is mid-stage and she is sweet and nice one minute and she is bellegerant and a total asshole in her acting out state...She breaks down mentally. Another symptom is memory loss. It's followed my the breakdown on the nervous system that eventually kills the person with it. She has called her nursing staff things I apologized to them for. The next instant she is calling them honey and sweety.

By the way my dad shows signs of it. If in fact he has it I stand a 50% chance of getting it... According to the docs I've talked to about it.

It does start showing signs in people as young as 40...I've seen it. My aunt is in a ward that is made for people with it. In my conversations with staff it can have an early onset.

Yep...I'm in law enforcment. I deal with people that have had a bad day every day. Do I let em off the hook...Hell no. I lock em up and let the courts decide what's best. Sometimes they let em go to treatment or they sentance em to jail...Kinda like what is going on here.

I think Sid is in his mid 50's...Not late 40s.
