Yes, in this one case. I am sure there are more like his. I am sure there are misdiagnosis. Why were Cho's records public? Just curious. And the gun comment is parsing tiny differences. Many bullets on the market are just as deadly as hollowpoints. IN this case, hollowpoints were an overkill anyhow.

Funny that you assume that I left. Not all parents are like the folks on this board.

Also, gun owners are not a small percentage. There are between 77 and 90 million gun owners in America.

1. This brings to mind the arguments that companies now use in order to perform a credit background search before they hire you (even though your job has nothing to do with banking, credit systems, financial institutions, etc). I feel this is an invasion of privacy. I also find that if someone searches another person's mental records--and let's remember that psychologist are not infalible--is an intensely personal invasion of privacy. 2. The over-regulation of our drug industry is there for one purpose--to ensure maximum profits. Why do I have to get a prescription from my doctor to get Retin A or Diflucan. Come on, other countries seem to be able to allow their public the basic assumption that most people are smart enough to figure out what they need. Your last statement makes clear the irony in an over-regulated drug system. Although it sounds all nice that people should have the freedom to carry on with thier lives with the assurance that nothing bad will happen to them, but there is no guarentee in life. You may get hit by a driver who swerves onto the sidewalk, you may get raped by a man in the bushes, you may get smacked on the head by a falling peice of concrete. But do we outlaw cars, dicks, and concrete as a result? No.

Makes me laugh so hard I shit myself.

I don't understand this statement.

The episode echoed President Reagan's 1984 quip at the height of the nuclear arms race with the Soviet Union when he said: "My fellow Americans, I'm pleased to tell you today that I've signed legislation that will outlaw Russia forever. We begin bombing in five minutes." Oh those kooky Republicans. Who says conservatives don't have a sense of humor!

isn't "kid" by definition not an adult?? In my opinion, there is a couple of years that you are both. I remember being pissed that I had to pay for an adult movie ticket yet not be allowed to watch an adult (R rated) movie. I think we can all remember back to those difficult years when we were both children and adults at the same time. yes, you may have thought you were an "adult" but you weren't...looking back, i'm very lucky to be here...I was hardly an "adult"... I was out of the house and supporting myself, with no contact from my family whatsoever, at the age of 16. Does that qualify me as an adult in your opinion? Sometimes, in my 30's, I find myself doing stupid shit like taking pics of my friends and I engaging in illegal activities and storing them on my iPod. Does that qualify me as a kid in your opinion?

You might feel differently if you were a student at VT, or Columbine today. Just because this happened in Virginia doesn't mean it couldn't just as easily have happened in a school in your neighborhood. Or your job office, etc. I don't think it's too much to ask that anyone who has been committed to a mental institution shouldn't be allowed to buy a Glock. Sure. And I also feel more sensitized and fearful after I drive by a horrible accident on the side of the road. I am a little more fearful climbing right after I hear of someone else who has died doing the same. I get a little nervous when I hear about another pedestrian getting hit and killed in Seattle. What's your point?

actually i said i was willing to sacrifice the former (gun rights) to protect the later (privacy) - ergo i'm with you. i don't need guns - i do need my johnson though, and no doubt The Man would want it if he kept the Big Hairy Eye-Ball on it all the time The underlying assumption is that these two things (gun rights and privacy rights) are mutually exclusive. Thinking about these two things as diametrically opposed is detrimental. Judging a person's metal health before letting them buy a gun? The next step is that they have to pass a mental health exam to buy a car--cars are far more deadly than guns. And I don't know about the rest of you, but I rarely fear being shot by anyone. I regularly fear the angry out-of-control asshole who drives like a madman and almost runs into me b/c he can't settle down enough to drive the speed limit, allow someone to change lanes, or stop for a red light. The shooting is a tragedy, no doubt. But let's keep our heads about us when reacting to it.

actually, they should be made into JP8

no shit. Start with all those fat fucks who refuse to buy two seats on an airplane on then sit right next to you and ask you if its okay to raise the armrest. I fucking hate those people. I will drive the extra mile to get rid of them.

you mean on all that garbage people through out their windows? I seem to see more mcD's shit on the side of the road than I do inside of the golden arches

totally agree

just a joke on the sicko thing btw

I asked if it was kiddie porn and you said no. Therefore, the kids in question must be 18 or over. Right, sicko?

my dad is from Sedalia

No, the time that you don't actually know the person you are in love with.

Then there is nothing wrong. The parents don't need to be involved. And I don't think anyone can prove that the drugs were real. Of course, if you think the kid has a drug problem, you talk to the kid, not the parents. The kid is an adult and should be treated as such.

No. They have two penises. Peni? Double wanger.

So are we talking about pics that are technically kiddie porn?

having been a teen, that shit is just plain stupid. if i were you i would make sure her parents get a copy of those photos. hell send then to me and i will e-mail them to her folks. she is so dumb she deserves to get caught. YOU DON"T TAKE PICTURES OF THAT SHIT... kids to day, i SWARE!!! The kid deserves to learn the hard way that you can do whatever you want as long as you can actually hide it from the parents. How can you agree with this? Especially when the quote starts with "Having been a teen, that shit is just plain stupid". Muff, you entertain me to no end--I love it!!! I just love it! (( can't wait to get married ))

word ipods and cell-phones feature prominently on the list of shit my daughter won't be getting from me, followed by a car less than 20 years old i guess these are the kids of parents from the cocaine-era though... As opposed to the hooka era?
