    Hello
    Young people who have irregular behavior are too often amped-up with anti-depressant prescription drugs which should be at the top of the problem list in our opinion. No one in the media or in Congress seems to talk about the problem. Why? Is it because too many are funded by the pharmaceutical industry? Because of their lack of knowledge people are too quick to blame guns.

    Piers Morgan: You say that you are a Catholic. In fact, you are a ROMAN Catholic. All followers of Jesus are "catholic" – meaning they belong to the universal church. Well, The frenzied media make a big deal about this much needed change of scenery in Rome – good leaders know when to quit. Bad leaders cling to power way too long, for narcissistic reasons. Such change of guard is essential for all groups in religion/politics for survival. The sky is not falling down yet! The Pope was thoughtful enough to step down and enjoy his old age in his own privacy. Leave him alone. Stop speculations.
