Notice anything about Calvin Haskins? Like the fact that he’s got an Egyptian ankh symbol tattooed in the middle of his forehead? Why would somebody do that? I could refer you to the title of a 1974 Richard Pryor album, or I could cite research that black people “are 2.4 times more likely [than white people] to be diagnosed with schizophrenia.” But it’s not necessary for me to offer evidence that Calvin Haskins is mentally disturbed — demented, deranged, daffy, wacky, bonkers, berserk, off his rocker, nutty as a Snickers bar, a few fries short of a Happy Meal and cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs — other than to mention that until recently, he was being treated at a state mental hospital in Buffalo, New York. Now, however, he’s being held without bond in the county jail:
Buffalo police said three staff members were taken from the Buffalo Psychiatric Center by ambulance after they were stabbed by a patient Wednesday morning.
The incident inside the Forest Avenue facility happened just after 9 a.m. The suspect in the matter, 34-year-old resident Calvin Haskins, has been taken into custody.
Go read it all. And just understand that as my grandfather used to say. Some people are “touched in the head”. Stay away from them would be my advice. Sadly this man had a “history of mental illness, and stabbing people, yet, was not in prison. Or mental facility………Go figure
