    The CDC says 1 in 5 teen boys have been diagnosed with ADHD ,and that doctors medicate 2/3 of the diagnosed with Ritalin or similar drugs .Where once teen boys had their energy channeled into physical activities like playing football ,now they do less physically demanding activities like shoot them up video games ;and when they show their fueled up aggression ;take a pill.

    Yep, the DSM is the tool of doctors and big pharma. Another shining example of corporatism taking over your society.

    Hello again,

    If you believe the polls (and most Republicans DON'T), 90% of the people believe we should have a comprehensive background check.

    Politically speaking, HOW can Republicans say no?

    That's because we are smart enough to know those polls are written for... paid for and designed for... the answer the people having them desire... which is pushing their communist anti-american agenda.

    We already have background checks.

    Hello again, righty's

    At least smoothy understood my question..

    I'm NOT asking about the BILL. I'm asking about how the Republicans think they'll survive with 90% of the people against them?

    I understood the question and it isn't as cut and dried as you make it, 48 percent also believe background checks could lead to government confiscation of legally-owned guns. I'm also betting that if they knew what else Schmucky's bill would they would oppose it. Regardless, our second amendment rights are not determined by polls.

    I don't disbelieve polls... I an skeptical of those from unknown and unrespected sources.

    Reliability with polls is purely based on proper design... they have to be designed from the start to be impartial.. many aren't.

    90% of the poplation isn't against us... thats what a biased poll designed to be pro-communist said... that poll was faulty in its very design.

    Meaning I flushed a wad of toilet paper this morning that was more useful than that poll was.

    Hello again, tom and smoothy:

    I'll mark you guys down as thinking this is a winner for the GOP, too.

    Actually, because NONE of you addressed my question, I'll bet you all KNOW it's you guys shooting yourselves in the foot once again...

    Gerrymandered districts or NOT, you guys will be handed your walking papers in 2014.

    Sorry buddy, your psychological warfare doesn't work on me. I'm not one iota concerned about fallout from not ramming through Schmucky's bill. It's a bad bill and it needs to go down.

    Dream on... most Democrats I know are disgusted by what the democrat party is doing... and will be voting Republican next election. Of course there are some that are dumb as rocks and aren't smart enough to see how bad Owebama and his band of useful idtiots have screwed everything up that think Owebama is making things better... despite a total lack of evidence to back that up.

    What was so hard about the Senate putting out a budget every year?

    Lets have a vote outlawing leftist "media" pushing propaganda instead of facts. And leftist speech.

    Those are no more protected rights than our right to own guns are after all.
