What is really informative is how people jump to the conclusion that he was abusing the drugs. If we discovered that Martin was taking the drugs would you think he was abusing them, and that he was actually casing the neighborhood to support his habit?
Because we have an epidemic of substance abuse/dependence of prescription narcotics in this country.
Rush got addicted to PRESCRIBED pain meds. So, yeah. I agree.
Actually, statistics prove that the abuse of all drugs, including prescription drugs, is pretty stable over time with a slight downward trend. That is not what I would call an epidemic.

How does any of your rant negate what I said?No, but I would guess Adult ADHD and anxiety as that is what those drugs treat.
I have to say here, putting someone with control issues that walked around with a loaded gun in a neighborhood watch program was a pretty fucking stupid thing to do.
You personally know of a mom who made a fucking stupid decision to not get an abortion.
Zimmerman hasn't been convicted of any crimes that he should have his second-amendment rights denied him. And, thank God, else he couldn't have plugged that African-American piece-of-shit to save his life.

Unless he admits to taking them, yes, it does. My guess is you are perfectly aware that, just because a doctor prescribes something, it does not mean that people actually take it.
It's more informative to me that Zimmermann had two prescriptions for two drugs that have a high potential for abuse.
Though, I am sure he really needed to treat that Adult ADHD.
He was probably working on quantum physics when he wasn't staring into a mirror saying: "you talking to me"?

you are actually attempting to have a rational conversation with Ariux? With ARIUX?
Bottom line: this earth shattering news comes from the FAMILY doctor, and NOT from an official hospital report FROM THAT NIGHT that corroborates with the EMT report.
The video FROM THAT NIGHT DOES NOT SUPPORT THIS LATEST STATEMENT.
And the band played on.
Are you going to dispute Trayvon's autopsy results as well? Obviously the truth doesn't fit your narrative.
Broken skin on his knuckles. The funeral director was lying.

I didn't suggest that it was an epidemic. But I do agree that one CAN get addicted to prescribed medication.
In what could prove to be one of their most far-reaching decisions, psychiatrists and other specialists who are rewriting the manual that serves as the nations arbiter of mental illness have agreed to revise the definition of addiction, which could result in millions more people being diagnosed as addicts and pose huge consequences for health insurers and taxpayers.
The revision to the manual, known as the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, or D.S.M., would expand the list of recognized symptoms for drug and alcohol addiction, while also reducing the number of symptoms required for a diagnosis, according to proposed changes posted on the Web site of the American Psychiatric Association, which produces the book.
In addition, the manual for the first time would include gambling as an addiction, and it might introduce a catchall category behavioral addiction not otherwise specified that some public health experts warn would be too readily used by doctors, despite a dearth of research, to diagnose addictions to shopping, sex, using the Internet or playing video games.

There was quite a bit of discussion about marijuana residue in a plastic bag that resulted in the victim being suspended from school. RGS gets angry when the killer's drug use is noted. I live in an area where prescription drug use is a significant problem. Had the killer drank a few shots of liquor, and snorted cocaine, I doubt those firm in their defense of the killer would be so adamant.

In my state, tough sentencing has put many of the dealers in prison. Physicians have had their licenses yanked, and many of the "pain clinics" have been shut down. The "clinics" also advertised about the dangers of "stress". Still, Florida is not without pill mills. And prescription drug abuse remains the most serious substance abuse problem in the country; I would put alcohol right beside pills myself.
A 26 year old man taking amphetamines and tranquilizers, LEGALLY, remains a drug user. the unusual defense of this man, and the heated defense of his drug use, is yet another sign of a nationwide drug problem.
So you think Zimmerman would become violent without his meds?Actually, statistics prove that the abuse of all drugs, including prescription drugs, is pretty stable over time with a slight downward trend. That is not what I would call an epidemic.

I take pain relievers when I need them, and sedatives. I do not drive when I take them, I do not take them unless I need them. Our government is so worried about pain relievers that you can no longer get them at the local clinics, you must go through a more expensive primary care physician some of whom will not see new clients at all. Due to that, pain relievers are at a premium and we have been robbed of our pain relievers, having to refill the prescription at our own cost because the insurance company doesn't accept "they were stolen" as an excuse. No, I didn't file a police report, they wouldn't have done anything anyway. I was surprised to find the doctor wasn't surprised that the pain killers were stolen out of our house and nothing else was missing. He said it was common and that the pharmacy that filled our prescriptions had been fined for tossing them (the paper prescriptions which are required for our painkillers, the doctors can't just call those in) without shredding them and people had picked them out of the trash to find addresses and where to get certain drugs. I do not think prescription drugs are a problem unless someone is taking them illegally, not if they are taking them AS PRESCRIBED!!!!
You'll find there are people with disabilities that ca become violent without their medications, would you advise them not to take them because YOU think they are a problem?
I would be more concerned about any illegal drugs involved rather than those that are prescribed.
Zimmerman had broken nose and injuries
That's what happens when you chase down an innocent person who did nothing wrong and threaten them with a gun. It's called "stand your ground". Oh wait. Killing a black person, according to right wingers is another definition of "stand your ground". It's like "magical creation" is the alternative to "evolution".

Just heard it on the news. Will get link ASAP.
I've got this one.
ABC News Reports Medical Records Support George Zimmermans Account Of Broken Nose And Scalp Injuries | Mediaite
When the tragic story of the shooting death of Trayvon Martin consumed the nation over the past few months, a number of questions were raised about racism, vigilantism, and self defense laws. However, the most important question was always the first one; what exactly happened that fateful night? The shooter, George Zimmerman, has always claimed that he fired his gun in self defense, something many found hard to believe considering the young boy he killed was unarmed. However, tonight, ABC World News broke information about the injuries Zimmerman received that may shed more light on just how that night went down.
The document describes Zimmerman as having suffered two black eyes, wounds to the back of the head, as well as a broken nose but that he declined both hospitalization after the encounter as well as a follow up with an ENT doctor.
The doctor who wrote the document also writes that Zimmerman suffers from stress and nausea when thinking about the night and was strongly advised to see a psychologist.
It also states that, prior to the shooting, Zimmerman had been prescribed the drugs Adderall and Temazepam, medication that ABC points out can cause side effects such as agitation and mood swings, but in fewer than 10 percent of patients.

Speed AND downers; this guy was DRUGGED. I think this could help the State.
Actually, it won't. In order to prove the murder charge the state has to prove that this was intentional, drugs make that harder.
