WITCH TRIALS

Regarding the political posing over pain medications like OxyContin,
I suggest we completely ban such substances - but only if the patient
is such as Russ Edgar, because it is obvious that they have no
feelings in the first place and would therefore not be harmed like
the rest of us mere mortals.

These OxyContin witch trials are hurting people who livein pain. Will
someone please tell me why the DEA couldn't have visited Dr.Graves a
long time ago to tell him they thought some of his prescribing was
excessive? Wouldn't that have saved lives and a good pain doctor?

Or maybe that isn't their objective! I think they should be
prosecuting the doctors who do not provide pain relief. Visit your
local nursing home some time!
