No, I’m not talking about “climate change”, though President Obama’s speech to the UN on the subject had some glaring and easily verifiable falsehoods. Instead, I’m talking about “shaken baby syndrome” (SBS), a well-known and well-established form of child death that results in about 200 murder/manslaughter convictions each year here in the United States. I [...]
