Those same people have sex which results in children, big deal; that's what makes them parents. Politicians and lawyers are unscrupulous. Big pharma makes billions of dollars in profits using surplus babies from NYC as lab rats. So many kids come back in body bags and wheel chairs for life from fighting unnecessary war to maintain the economy. One quack makes $400,000 a year. 900 jobs, MHAs making $35,000 grand. Somebody's got to be the victims. The USA is an hypocrisy. You can't say a curse word because it's wrong? Pay more money and listen to them on cable TV. Some of the morbidly obese employees at JRC are punching themselves in the gallbladder so much their gallbladder must be removed. Others are flapping cigarette lighters and stabbing their lungs with cigarettes until their hearts give out. God is a three letter word.

I read MJ with several tablespoons of salt, but they don't generally make things up out of whole cloth, and Israel's response sounds mentally ill. I read it hoping to be persuaded, and came away saying "Holy crap, something's wrong with this guy." Either he genuinely doesn't see the problems with what he's doing or he's convinced that whitewashing is A-OK.<BR/> <BR/>Some of the statements are frankly bizarre. "Only a minority (43%)" of the students receive the shocks? He's got electrodes taped to 43% of the kids there? What a strange way to soothe the reader. <BR/> <BR/>The attempt at smearing the reporter doesn't go over well, either. <BR/><BR/>This is a very creepy man who's found and commented on your blog, Bev.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5794893825407092443.post-64950127760826659852007-10-02T10:59:00.000-04:002007-10-02T10:59:00.000-04:00Ms. Gonnerman’s article “School of Shock,” which a...Ms. Gonnerman’s article “School of Shock,” which appears in the September/October issue of the Mother Jones magazine, is an entirely one-sided and biased account of the court- and parent-approved behavior modification therapy used at the Judge Rotenberg Center to successfully treat, without drugs, severe (sometimes life-threatening) behavior problems of children and young adults with special needs that have not responded to any other form of treatment.
