"they can just stop trying to stop him if they want"
Thats exactly what I said in my first comment here. I said they have to either decide he's full of shit or send him for help. If you go respond to someone who's full of shit and pulled the same attention seeking behavior 200+ times, you're going to have to expect the next time it happens to be bullshit attention seeking again.
I'm not even going to bother with the rest of it because we are talking in circles and you already agree with my original premise that they need to either decide this guy is full of shit or send him to a clinic.
I don't think 300 million would even be enough. They want to make an example of him.
