"Family Members Say Florida School Shooter Was On Antidepressants for Emotional Issues "
"From Prozac to Parkland: Are Psychiatric Drugs Causing Mass Shootings?
While mass killers generally have guns in their hands, another commonality is that they often have psychiatric drugs in their blood.
***
As a case in point, the Parkland, Florida, shooter (I won’t use his name and help provide the fame he craved), who murdered 17 on Valentine’s Day, was on medication for emotional issues, his aunt related."
The article lists many more examples.
Unfortunately, the evening "news" broadcasts continue to be sponsored primarily by drug companies. Seriously, count the ads. An outright majority are from drug companies, and half of those are for drugs you can't even buy legally without a prescription. "Ask your doctor," over and over again.
As long as the drug companies control the MSM, you are unlikely to hear much about the role of Rx drugs in driving these otherwise incomprehensible attacks. The narrative continues to blame guns, because gun manufacturers don't generally advertise on TV.
The #1 rule of TV news is: promote the advertisers. Rx drugs are always good, and their illegal competitors are always bad. Anything that goes wrong must be blamed on either illegal drugs or one of the other standard villains, never the drug companies.

Herewith my suggestions for solving this problem:
1. No long guns sold to those under age 25.
2. Crazy young male teens monitored closely: "register punks, not guns"
3. Allow easier reporting of a wacko aggressive male.
4. Monitor and follow any teen taking certain meds which seem to also be a common denominator for many shootings by nutty kids.
5. Allow schools to figure out how to go after a kid shooting up the place; maybe have a guard who isn't afraid to use his gun.

I would go the opposite route: No Pistols sold under 25, maybe even 35. Exceptions for veterans/current military, or business owners who can apply for a permit.
And add 6. Mandatory Hospitalization of Schizophrenics and very Mentally Ill, and a process for School Admins and Police to do so.

They MOST LIKELY are. The possible contradictory
theory though is that these kids were already the most distraught, and therefore their existing depression before the pills cause both the pills to be prescribed and the reaction? So the question remains, what is the murderous rage difference cause by the pills? Unclear.
What I THINK is happening : 1) these pills are designed to suppress your own normal emotional reactions.
2) these kids already cant conteol their impulsive minds, or they wouldn't be on these pills in the first place.
3) normal people have murderous thought "I'm so angry I could strangle him", followed immediately a healthy emotional and logical reaction reminding you to never actually follow through w this impulsive anger. To most people, these thoughts are just anger spats in their heads.
4)when you take a pill designed to suppress your emotional reactions, AND you are already a logically challenged 16 year old, think about what could happen? maybe just MAYBE in that situation when the kid has his murderous thoughts, the natural humane emotional response is blocked by the pill...and he starts to think perhaps I could actually 'strangle him'.

“The subject of “The Desperate Cry of America’s Boys” is a difficult one. To point out that boys need their fathers is to shine a spotlight on divorce and single mothers; and that is, admittedly, uncomfortable. But there’s no way to address fatherlessness comfortably.
The fact is, divorce and family breakdown—which, to answer my emailer’s question, is the root of fatherlessness—is catastrophic for children. There’s more than one reason why, but an obvious one is that in the majority of cases, divorce separates children from their fathers.
This is destructive to both boys and girls, but each sex suffers differently. Girls who grow up deprived of their father are more likely to become depressed, more likely to self-harm, and more likely to be promiscuous. But they still have their mothers, with whom they clearly identify. Boys do not have a comparable identification and thus suffer more from father absence. They also tend to act out in a manner that’s harmful to others, which girls typically do not.
The root of fatherlessness rests in two things: our culture’s dismissal of men as valuable human beings who have something unique to offer; and its dismissal of marriage as an institution that’s crucial to the health and well-being of children.”
