What is a 302 Involuntary Commitment in Pennsylvania?

I have been signing my blogposts, in part, with the following:
Does Umar Johnson need a 302 involuntary commitment?
Mobile Crisis Team:  1-800-417-9460
I was doing this with a kind of tongue-in-cheek attitude, even though I believe Umar Johnson is mentally ill.

There are so many instances that could be considered evidence, they are too many to list.  The three types of evidence that just burns my biscuits are:

1) pieces of evidence around Umar Johnson laying in bed while he calls Black people lazy; 
2) pieces of evidence in which Umar Johnson is lusting after women; 
3) pieces of evidence in which Umar Johnson is blatantly lying 

But, what exactly is a 302 involuntary commitment?

Definition of Involuntary Commitment

Involuntary commitment is the legal process of admitting someone to a mental health facility against their will, usually because they are deemed to be a danger to themselves or others due to a mental illness.

Criteria for Involuntary Commitment

  1. Danger to self: This includes suicidal thoughts, attempts, or actions that suggest the person is at risk of harming themselves.
  2. Danger to others: This involves threats or actions that indicate the person is likely to harm others.  
  3. Inability to care for self: This refers to a situation where the person's mental illness prevents them from meeting their basic needs for food, shelter, or personal care. 
The emphasis above are my own.  I've decided to emphasize these points because we have evidence of them in the demonstration of Umar's behavior along with at least one witness.

Examples

Danger to self:  Working and sleeping in a trap bando building that have mold, no HVAC, and no plumbing.
Danger to others:  Having others work and eat in a trap bando building that has mold, no HVAC, and no plumbing.
Inability to care for self:  Having a "home" (where he shouldn't be) that is absolutely filthy and refusing to clean it or let anyone else clean it. 

Initiating a 302 Commitment

A person initiating a 302 must have witnessed the dangerous behavior directly.

Who Can Initiate a 302 Commitment?

Typically, police officers, doctors, or other qualified mental health professionals can initiate a 302.  In most cases, no prior authorization is needed to initiate the process, allowing for quick intervention in emergencies. 

Duration of 302 Commitment

Temporary

A 302 commitment is not indefinite; it's intended to be a short-term measure.  The person is held for a period while a licensed mental health professional evaluates their condition.  If the professional determines that the individual no longer poses a danger, they will be discharged. 

Legal Considerations

  1. Court review: Individuals committed under a 302 can petition the court to review the basis of the commitment. 
  2. Expungement: If the court finds the commitment was not justified, the records may be expunged. 
  3. Record keeping: While a 302 is an emergency measure, it's important to note that the commitment may be part of the individual's medical record. 
So, what do you think?

Don't Believe the Hype

Take a bit of advice from Public Enemy, please. Don't believe the hype ! What hype am I talking about? The idea the Umar Johnson has actually acquired a building, in my view, is a bunch of hype. Umar Johnson claims the has bought a building, or a set of buildings located at 610 - 611 East 17th Street in Wilmington, DE. Okay So, let's look at the records. Exhibit One is the records of recent sales in New Castle County, Wilmington, DE Exhibit One - Recent real estate sales in New Castle County, Wilmington, DE Let's look at Exhibit Two below where we see that the last purchase of this property was in 2017.

Baby Mamma Number Three...

Umar Johnson has no right to tell anyone anything about families, children, or education as far as I'm concerned. Why? Because, y'all, Umar has just been "tagged" with Baby Mamma Number Three. I will not do the woman involved the disservice of putting her name out on this blog, but just pay attention to the video  below. This man, who is clearly irresponsible , who is telling you that he needs your donations to create a school for Black boys, although he can't explain where the money is , who tells you he isn't going to show you his plan because y'all too stupid to understand, unless you have a $10,000 check , then he can let you in on the plan, with his tax liens and a pretend relationship to Frederick Douglass, AND who has six degrees , none of which he has shown, who lies about celibacy , who has THREE, count 'em, THREE baby mammas , yet he is unapologetically African , who doesn't respect any man who is not committed to a Black wo...

Damnitall to hell!  I was just here, minding my own business, progressing and enjoying my life! BUT... I've sat back and watch more of Umar Johnson with his lies, schemes, scams, disrespect, danger, hypocrisy, usury, foolery, fuckery, and disregard of Black people and I'm beyond sickened of what I'm seeing in this goddamned fool who supposedly has six degrees. Oh my God!  Where do I start? Weakness At this block party, there were people, supposedly the New Black Panther Party, allegedly had assault weapons pointing down at the crowd from a roof of the trap bandos.  From what I understand of the laws of Delaware concerning open-carry weapons, having open-carry assault weapons is illegal.   Thank the heavens that nothing happened.  But, that situation, in and of itself is dangerous, especially with women, children and elders present.  Why have that at a "family" oriented block party?  What was Umar Johnson expecting?  Did he reall...
