NRA boss Oliver North blames Ritalin, ‘culture of violence’ for school shootings
[NYDAILYNEWS] Incoming NRA President Oliver North tried to blame the rash of school shootings across the U.S., including the massacre at a Texas high school Friday, on video games and ADHD medication instead of access to firearms.

The gun lobby's newest spokesman said the wave of killings were carried out by "young boys" who "have been on Ritalin since they were in kindergarten."

"I am certainly not a doctor, I'm a Marine, but I can see those kinds of things happening," North said in an interview on "Fox News Sunday."

His claim comes two days after teen gunman Dimitrios Pagourtzis killed 10 of his classmates and teachers at Santa Fe High School with a handgun and a shotgun.
I don't know if he's right or wrong. I do know that when I was a kid there wasn't any Ritalin and there weren't any school shootings. I have watched my grandson playing video games and I thought they were disgustingly violent.
My mother says the same about the cartoons that children watched in the 1960s.
