00:00okay uh this next person wonders if this is right or wrong um i have a well someone in his life

00:14okay okay oh we're gonna say friend well yeah just who tends to wander off

00:19sometimes he remembers his wallet and we can track him down other times he'll leave the house

00:26with nothing on him and we have to go out and try and find him like he's just okay he's not nude but

00:33he's just right no obviously you know yeah mental stuff right okay i'm wondering what you guys think

00:41if we tagged him just against his will oh man yeah just uh and he's a is he is it i can't tell

00:50is he a slower man yeah i believe he's a slower man he's a slower man these are odd questions

00:55i don't know how dave found this mental problem just email me i don't understand can you tag a

01:01friend that wanders off well i don't know it's family i'm a special family member i guess if

01:09they wander off and you're worried about them yeah you can go ahead and tag them i mean i don't know

01:13you don't stick it in their butter or anything well strangest question yeah uh he says i have

01:18something that can go under the skin no wait a second so that he couldn't remove it and we would

01:25always know where he was you're gonna do surgery a light surgery while he sleeps you're gonna knock

01:30him out you're gonna drug i don't know if that's lawful are there gps implants you is that even

01:35possible never heard of it i know you can like it's in the matrix and stuff but that's do you have

01:40legal rights to do that to him i don't don't think you do somebody with a brain injury or a

01:47strange question there are oh wow for that that was being offered by someone so if grandpa's running

01:55around you can just stick them with a the micro trip can not only track the patients via gps it can

02:01also store their medical history it'll send distress signals to the nearest hospital and monitor the

02:06person's vitals but they have to be willing probably probably or you have to have uh what

02:13is that called right right of attorney power of attorney power of attorney so if you have power of

02:18attorney i guess you could go ahead and still has a right to refuse even if you have power of attorney

02:23yes probably and they're gonna refuse i mean you're just okay i think it is crazy yes but you don't

02:31want them to get hurt you don't want to lose them you don't want something bad to have it's not

02:35coming from a bad place you know what i mean it's coming from a good place you're trying to keep

02:40track of them in case they wander off and you have to go find them i know but you really have to almost

02:44do this when someone's with it still i mean are they really talking about like like putting an air

02:52tag under their skin yeah something like that like a microchip like how you do with dogs so there'd have

02:58to be an appointment because i think the authorities would be like he says that you put an air tag under his

03:03skin with a surgery and yeah no i don't think they're gonna do any at-home stuff okay i don't

03:08know though some of that pet stuff is done sort of at home this is a human yeah i mean like for

03:15dementia and stuff i think but like usually there's like somebody in charge of somebody that has a

03:20mental issue like yeah they're not just like freestyling it out there i mean i will say though

03:24like they do they do skedaddle you know every once in a while and that has got to be terrifying

03:30yeah because they'll do it in the middle of winter listen it's happened a friend of ours

03:34uh her mom unfortunately is you know dealing with stuff and she's done it several times now and it's

03:38been terrifying for them of course they've gone hours of times not knowing where their mom is right

03:43that's why i think i get it i understand it i put gps all over my dad yes he went to ireland

03:50just so i know but i didn't implant it in his body just in every other part of what he wears and has

03:56on him right like maybe in their shoes or something but like yeah there's other ways you can do it i

04:02guess there's nothing that this person takes with them all the time yeah that's the only thing i'd be

04:07doesn't have a car or same shoes or keychain like sometimes just leaves the house with barely

04:13anything i don't know for the people that ask yeah i don't i feel like that's a lot of

04:17responsibility talk to somebody else a person in your life is close to you and has a mental issue

04:22and you're coming to me about a surgery you know who i should ask david chuck the freak i don't know
