Years ago, I remember the dominant media had a story that the Pentagon was secretly developing a pill that would be given to our troops that would take away all emotions from them, and make them un-feeling killing machines. There was absolutely no morsel of truth to this. It’s amazing what kooky ideas America-hating leftists can concoct.

Of course, back then in the 1980’s, we only had ABC/CBS/NBC/newspapers. Back then, the media could broadcast any kooky leftist theory as “fact”, and a large amount of Americas would think: “Well, if it was on tv or in the newspaper, it must be true!” We still have too many Americans thinking that way (unfortunately alot of them still vote), but the rock of the base of the American Fourth Estate has greatly collapsed. So it wouldn't surprise me if a lot of people will believe the "gay bomb" as pure liberal gospel.

Yes, now we have the internet and anyone can spread a story like this all over the world in a matter of minutes. :)

Some would say that describes anti-depressants. It doesn’t, but they sure might help with the trauma afterwards.
