Get Thee To A Shrink!


John Travolta (seen here modeling his favorite codpiece) says his thinking is in line with fellow Scientologist and cradle-robber Tom Cruise on psychiatry and the use of psychotropic drugs, adding:
"I think that if you analyze most of the school shootings, it is not gun control. It is (psychotropic) drugs at the bottom of it."

Ah yes, guns don't kill people, blah blah. Were any of the shooters -- Columbine, Virginia Tech, etc. -- in psychiatric treatment, on or off meds, when the shootings occurred? That's not what we recall. The shooters were all people who could have benefited from psychiatric care and intervention; the victims would be alive if the shooters' access to weapons had been restricted and their access to mental health professionals increased. Capt. Codpiece and Mother Hubbard would also benefit if they could be pried away from their "auditing" and deprogrammed into normal human beings.
