I agree with you on this. And as a matter of fact, after what that child had been through, thanks in part to the Relatives and the madhouse they euphemistically called home, he may have needed tranquilizers. I still don't understand the leap made from what ANY doctor might carry in her medical bag to the drugging of Elian into a mindless blob (which he did NOT appear to be). That has struck me as a silly attack from the first. Just one of the scattershots they keep firing, hoping to hit something, anything. A few years ago I ruptured an ovarian cyst, which is extremely, though temporarily, painful. My neighbor came over to get the boys, and when she saw me in such distress, she sent her husband, a doctor, over. When he arrived, he opened his bag, and pulled out a hypo and a vial containing---- A TRANQUILIZER!! It was right there!!!! In his bag!!!! It did not occur to me to wonder why he had these terrible drugs, what dastardly plans he had for them. DO you think he was drugging his family? Himself? The lawnguy? I assumed it was sort of a standard part of the arsenal a doctor has on hand. Actually at the time, I was just delighted that he could shoot me up with anything to help manage the pain. But now I wonder.......what he was REALLY up to...
