British Academic Backs up Tom Cruise

Over the last few weeks, since actor and esteemed Scientology adherent Tom Cruise highlighted exposed the gaping holes and the Achilles heel deep at the heart of the psychiatric community, murmurings began and those murmurings have grown in volume in halls of learning deep within the medical establishment. During the last few days, the numbers of understandably concerned parents have been requesting additional information from their doctors. Their children have been druged on Ritalin and they rightly feel they deserve answers.

Today Barry Turner, one of the most respected minds and voices in the field of medical ethics, issued a statement thet completely exposes the lack of ethics and valid science in psychiatry. Though the statement was poorly spelled and required editing, the message is clear:

"Doctors and psychiatrists arround the world who have been handing out Ritalin are now faced with a tough choice: Continue to drug these children in the face of overwhealming evidence of the resulting harm, or reform themselves and use the truth and the facts that Mr. Tom Cruise and medical experts like Barry Turner have had the courage to bring to light, to bring the companies and the people that have so badly betrayed our children into line thus bringing about very long over due and needed reform."
