I am a psychiatric social worker with more years in the field than I wish to admit and I am here to tell you, no one messes with a really crazy person.
Another option would be to let me teach him to act crazy, I mean really crazy. You mentioned his friend may snap? The appearance of snap is good, no one messes with the crazy guy!!!
just Brad
my best friend and snowmobile buddy is currently on an LDS mission to East LA, I have lived in a predominately LDS community all my life, I think some of the beliefs are a bit out there but can tolerate most anything
thanks for caring enough to ask
