HA!!!
This is the FOURTH (maybe fifth) time you have vowed not to post any more
of
your ad hominem filth in this thread, but like a typical drug addict, you
cannot control yourself.
There is nothing in your posts in this thread that add anything to this
discussion but your patented personal nastiness and hostility. The very
first sentence of your very first post in this thread was as follows: "Ah,
the *Anti Benzo Squad* is on the war path again." That is purely nasty,
hostile ad hominem garbage. And your posts have degenerated from there,
including your inconsiderate piling on of a mountain of tendentious
studies,
most of them funded by big drug companies who have a vested interest in
promoting these drugs.
And now what is the essence of your post? To advance the discussion with
rational argument and facts? No . . . it is to command me to shut up
because
you obviously cannot refute my points with logic or facts. This
totalitarian
impulse is of a piece with your chronic ad hominem nastiness and personal
hostility and your indifference to the suffering of the countless
thousands
opeople who have fared badly with these drugs--unto complete dysfunction
and
ruined lives.
You, sir, on all these counts are an ethical atrocity and disgrace.
