    Over-medication of kids is a legitimate topic, but that legitimacy gets diluted when ghouls like North try to cite it as a self-exculpatory explanation for violence in Americahttps://twitter.com/axios/status/998210904863932417 …

        Even if it was exceedingly rare for Ritalin to cause homicidal mania, we'd see 10X as many school shootings as we do already. That's how common Ritalin 'scrips are. North has been a spook/paid liar/agent provocateur/war criminal for decades. He's a perfect match for the NRA.

        Right, over-medication is a concern for reasons that have virtually nothing to do with school shootings, and discussing it in that context serves only to scapegoat

        How about just stop at "it's a legitimate topic" and go from there?

        Considering the side-effects of those medications almost always warn of violent/psychotic outbursts, I'd say he has a valid point.

        There is an automatic gun in every Swiss household. It’s required as part of their national defense organization. You don’t see people going on rampage like we do here. Isn’t it legitimate to ask why?

        Ritalin is an amphetamine. It doesn’t cause psychosis. He’s an idiot. And a liar. And perfect for the NRA.

        So says North, the man responsible for selling millions in illegal drugs to finance Reagan’s illegal war.

        I would love to say it’s an over generalized statement but I don’t think we truly know the long term damage of such Meds on young children. Food/Meds have impacted them already! Girls physically look at 18 when 10, boys still look 7 at 17!? 🤷‍♀️
