For those people who have seen rants here, a piece of news
Arrest made in Twitter threats case | CBC News
Montreal police say they've made an arrest in a case involving threats made on the internet. The threats allegedly target atheists and people in the scientific community.
In a news release, police say they've arrested a suspect but have few other details.
They launched an investigation into the online activity of a Montreal man following a deluge of complaints from around the world about his alleged habit of threatening people online.
More than 3,000 people signed a petition calling on police to investigate reports of death threats against atheists and secularists.
Some people allegedly being threatened said the Montrealer, who goes by the online moniker "David Mabus" among a number of pseudonyms, has been at it for nearly two decades.
Police were so inundated with complaints about the man last week that they pleaded with the public to stop contacting them and promised to investigate.

Re: Arrested again
I know someone who is strongly bi-polar, and one thing the mania does is drive insomnia. The alcohol hits the same receptors in the brain that some of the sleeping medications do, and has a calming effect. When they were off the meds (no insurance) , getting 'drunk' actually made them become sober...
They managed to get medicade when they moved here, and as soon as they started the meds, they had no desire to drink anymore.
