with all the robbery that has given a few people in the U.S. inordinate riches and access to continued increases of those, how can you stand letting someone say we should have the American Dream play by the rules work hard and thus do well!? It's NEVER been true for most of us, as you wll know.

I am surprised that this program's host and guest make the all too easy assumption that a mass murderer has to be insane(i.e. mentally ill). Norwegian Anders Behring Breivik mass killing of almost a hundred people recently could not have been pulled off by someone who was "insane". He like any mass murderer is a product of and an actualizer of hatred through violent means.

The fact is the mentally ill are no more likely to commit a violent act as a "normal", functioning individual or group of individuals. At most, the percentage of violent acts per year by mentally ill persons is about 3%.

What the singling out of an isolated massacre by someone on a rampage does, is give more legal weight and social acceptance to force administration of torturous, inhumane, toxic, life span shortening psychiatric drugs into persons who express their greater than normal emotional feelings or cognitive anomalies in abnormal, but inconsequential ways.

Breivik was not insane, but filled with hate. Unfortunately for him and those he killed, he turned that hatred into actual death to almost a hundred innocents.

I actually met two young men who carried some extreme rightwing views at Chicago airport! It is scary how these two young men - one claiming to be a PhD in physics at Ann Arbor (was too dumb to be a doctoral student) - were speawing out Rightwing stuff, and claiming to be Canadians. There are some odd people, some call them Canadian red necks (an odd term), in Canada too. One was posing as a police officer spewing out hatred for American politicians. He actually appeared obsessed with the American invasion of Canada in 1812, and wanted to retaliate. Very strange indeed!
