I'll probably go sooner than that, but it's pretty big and I bet I'll be making several trips so let me know when you're local.

You know which room was his personal office? Is it labeled or easy to tell somehow?

It's pretty wild that fucking sterilizations actually occurred here. I guess it's no more shocking than transorbital lobotomies n' other lurvely stuff that was happening all over the place during this era of "modern" medicine

Will do and of course I'm still down for what we talked about. I only got to a few of the buildings and there are plenty more to see.

I'll at least get a few pics up tonight

Dejarentte himself testified at Buck v. Bell as an expert witness, the Supreme Court case that rendered sterilization constitutional...

Gotta update my location, I'm staying in Staunton for the summer

And I assume that his office is in the main Blackburn building? Didn't get there yet but I will be looking out for it.

I thought so, and I was mostly only in one (granted, huge) ward. I think it has lots more to offer

Ya Dejarnette was a fookin maniac. You hear very little about him when talking about eugenics

The homeless guy is gone. These pictures are old. Most of what you see here is in much worse shape now. For example, the "Super Heroes" painting is almost gone. Check the LDB for more updated pics.

Hey guys.

Ever since I first saw the posts on here about Western State, I've planned to get up there from Roanoke soon.. and it looks like plans are finally falling into place. I should be heading up Monday with three other photographers. This is the biggest Urbex adventure I'll be going on yet. I was wondering if anyone had any tips about getting in and not being seen?

If you don't want it to be public, just PM me. I can show you some of my pictures from Flickr of some urbex I've done if you want a bit of proof I'm not going to go do damage.

I would just rather be armed with knowledge when going in than doing it blind.

I forget if DeJarnette was actually in charge of this asylum or Staunton.

Dr. Joseph S. DeJarnette
Mendel's Law.
A PLEA FOR A BETTER RACE OF MEN.

Oh, why are you men so foolish -
You breeders who breed our men
Let the fools, the weaklings and crazy
Keep breeding and breeding again?
The criminal, deformed, and the misfit,
Dependent, diseased, and the rest -
As we breed the human family
The worst is as good as the best.

Go to the house of some farmer,
Look through his barns and sheds,
Look at his horses and cattle,
Even his hogs are thorough breds;
Then look at his stamp on his children,
Low browed with the monkey jaw,
Ape handed, and silly, and foolish -
Bred true to Mendel's law.

Go to some homes in the village,
Look at the garden beds,
The cabbage, the lettuce and turnips,
Even th ebeets are thoroughbreds;
Then look at the many children
With hands like the monkey's paw,
Bowlegged, flat headed, and foolish -
Bred true to Mendel's law.

This is the law of Mendel,
And often he makes in plain,
Defectives will breed defectives
And the insane breed insane.
Oh, why do we allow these people
To breed back to the monkey's nest,
To increase our country's burdens
When we should only breed the best?

Oh you wise men take up the burden,
And make this your loudest creed,
Sterilize the misfits promptly -
All not fit do breed!
Then our race will be strengthened and bettered,
And our men and our women be blest,
Not apish, repulsive and foolish,
For the best will breed the best.

DeJarnette was never in charge of this sanatorium. All of his work took place at the older sanatorium that is just down the road.

Yea but the conversation has shifted to the one down the road somehow

You are right though, the Dejarnette center was just named after Dejarnette, never run by him

Did you have a bad experience there recently? Last time I went we walked around pretty freely and no one seemed to mind

Too bad because I was going to go back soon to do the one building I hadn't done yet

Well, there was some sort of private party/ event going on, so that may have had something to do with it. There was also 5 or so of us, so that didn't help either. We ran into some of the party-go'ers in there, and I guess when security told them they weren't allowed in there they said they saw us. Or we could've been spotted. The bottom line is, they were super nice to us because they thought we were with the party, and we didn't get in trouble.
