Is anyone going to sue NAMI for promoting Risperdal ?
The National Alliance For The Mentally Ill was marketing Risperdal for kids, they had this link posted on the front page of there website. Its still there on the web archive.

How do they always get off the hook ?

Because they have the ear of the government and of the media. They’re also supported by drug company money, probably most of their money comes from drug companies. The shills must be paid for their services.
