The army was using Sodium Penthanol on soldiers who didn't want to fight in Nam in the 60s. There was a lot of talk about some gov't officials posing as hippies and giving out LSD, and keeping tabs on the people they gave it to. So I have no idea how much of it may be true. Interesting post.
That somehow doesn't surprise me. Here in Canada during the '60s they were using LSD on women prisoners at Kingston Pen (now closed) and on mental patients in Montreal just to see what would happen.
SME - That's another reason why I'm more scared of mental hospitals than jail. I don't trust any of those psychiatric drugs either. For the record, every single one of those school shooters that I'm aware of was on psychiatric drugs.
Psychiatric meds do have some alarming side effects; going off them suddenly can be quite dangerous, too. I think that was the case with Eric Harris of Columbine.
