Uhhhm…did you happen to notice the date on this? It was two years ago. Obviously no one was stupid enough to follow Maher’s facetious advice or it certainly would have made the news big time.
Are you totally oblivious of the real point he was making albeit satirically?
Too many of this nation’s kids are already on drugs (and at surprisingly young ages) and apparently no one recognizes the crime in that.
I’m not saying that there aren’t legitimate uses for medication with a severely ADHD child.
But way too many kids are supposedly in that severe category. There is almost no advice to try the LESS potentially harmful ways of dealing with a childs hyperactivity (such as good old
behavior modification) before putting th on speed. That’s what Riralin and a lot of those
drugs do.
And then we wonder why they end up as addicts later on.
He is making a very value point by satirically suggesting that parents put the drugs directly into the candy since they’re already taking a boatload of crap already. But as long as it’s labeled a prescription, that magically makes it all right.
Yeah I don’t think so.
But obviously there was not a sudden rash of drugged candy two years ago. People recognized satire for what it was.
It’s a shame that the author of that website is so busy pushing his agenda that he is so totally humor deficient that he can’t even recognize satire when it’s plain as the nose on his face. Yeesh.
(you might want to add in some websites with a more balanced viewpoint. I mean, last week it was the nutbar Alex Jones putting out biased innacurate and xenophobic info
about Ebola and now there’s this guy ranting about suing someone for obvious satire. Please consider my advice to get a better variety of
websites with some objectivity in your bookmarks. That will help to balance out the nutjobs.)
