Weasel Assembly Kicks Brooks Out On Voice Vote

From the Las Vegas Sun: In a voice vote masking how each individual lawmaker sided, the Nevada Assembly made the unprecedented decision to expel one of their own — troubled Assemblyman Steven Brooks, D-North Las Vegas.
The decision came after hours of closed door deliberations and a three-hour long closed hearing on the evidence surrounding Brooks, including his two arrests, an involuntary psychiatric evaluation, an attempt to buy a high-powered rifle and a string of erratic outbursts.
A majority of "yays" sounded in the chamber after several speeches, some tearful, on the reasons to expel him. Only a handful of "nays" were heard. A crying Speaker Marilyn Kirkpatrick then declared Brooks' seat vacant.
"The truth is we did not feel safe having him in this building," Assembly Majority Leader William Horne said on the Assembly floor just before the vote.

Well, Horne, the public doesn't feel safe when you and the Democrats are in session because you guys do more harm to Nevada than Brooks ever did.
And Brooks didn't take it too well:
In a phone call with the Las Vegas Sun after the vote, Brooks declared himself an "open book" and ranted for about 45 seconds before hanging up.
"You tell those sons of bitches they are going to have to look me in the eye when they try to kill a crazy man again," Brooks said, adding that he was on his way to the Legislature. "I have never been crazy, but they are trying to drive me that way. They are all going to jail. I got all their secrets. If they put one finger on me, they are going to jail for five years. I am going to commit a Legal 2000 on William Horne as soon as I get there."
A Legal 2000 allows authorities to hold someone who may be a danger to himself or others. Brooks was taken in for mental health evaluation under the auspices of a Legal 2000 in January.
"How dare they?" Brooks told The Associated Press in a separate phone call immediately after the vote. "I've been convicted of nothing ... They won't let me testify at the Grant Sawyer Building, and they sent 100 police officers to arrest me.
"Let me ask you, how can they do that?" he added.
So, what happens if Brooks goes off the deep end and goes on some kind of rampage, will the Assembly be held somewhat responsible?
Since he was fired from his main job and now the Assembly, he probably has no health insurance to get help.
I think Brooks is crazy but certainly is not in the league of a Harry Reid, Dina Titus or John Ensign who are some the worst and corrupt politicians Nevada has ever seen.
And for the Assembly to hide information and then hold a voice vote tells me that they are not confident in their votes and maybe hiding something.
The Nevada Assembly performed poorly and they have opened up themselves to be called racist.
