Fact: At least 36 school shootings and/or school-related acts of violence have been committed by those taking or withdrawing from psychiatric drugs

The most important fact about this list, is that these are only cases where the information about their psychiatric drug use was made public.


https://www.cchrint.org/school-shooters/

Before the late nineteen eighties, mass shootings and acts of senseless violence were relatively unheard of. Prozac, the most well known SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor) antidepressant, was not yet on the market. When Prozac did arrive, it was marketed as a panacea for depression which resulted in huge profits for its manufacturer Eli Lilly. Of course other drug companies had to create their own cash cow and followed suit by marketing their own SSRI antidepressants.

Subsequently, mass shootings and other violent incidents started to be reported. More often than not, the common denominator was that the shooters were on an antidepressant, or withdrawing from one.

There have been too many mass shootings for it just to be a coincidence. Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold killed twelve students and a teacher at Columbine High School. Eric was on Luvox, an antidepressant. The Virginia Tech shooter killed thirty-two people and he was on an antidepressant. While withdrawing from Prozac, Kip Kinkel murdered his mother and stepmother. He then shot twenty-two classmates and killed two. Jason Hoffman wounded five at his high school while he was on Effexor, also an antidepressant. James Holmes opened fire in a Colorado movie theater this past summer and killed twelve people and wounded fifty-eight. He was under the care of a psychiatrist but no information has been released as to what drug he must have been on.

Psychiatrists generally will tell you that these people were mentally ill and they werent treated in time or didnt get enough help to prevent the tragedy. However, Dr. Peter Breggin, who is a psychiatrist, stated that depression rarely leads to violence and that its only since the SSRIs came on the market that such mass shootings have taken place.

In a study of thirty-one drugs that are disproportionately linked to reports of violence toward others, five of the top ten are antidepressants. These are Prozac, Paxil, Luvox, Effexor and Pristiq. Two other drugs that are for treating ADHD are also in the top ten which means these are being given to children who could then become violent.

A Harvard psychiatrist closely monitors his patients as he has seen firsthand that those that were not suicidal before became agitated, restless and completely preoccupied with suicidal thoughts. When these patients were taken off the drug, the thoughts went away. Clearly this demonstrates its the drugs causing these violent feelings, not the mental health of the patient.

The point is you cant prescribe an antidepressant or any other psychiatric drug when you dont know the cause of the symptoms. Nothing ever gets treated, helped or fixed without a cause. Instead, mind-altering drugs are being given to our future generation for no sensible or logical reason other than profits for pharmaceutical companies. The only result is dead bodies from mass shootings and that is truly senseless.

The more I hear about antidepressants, the more glad I am I refused to ever go on them. Sure, it may have been coming from a "fuck you I'm not taking pills" point of view, but it looks like even if the reasoning was crap, the answer was ultimately the right one.

Then perhaps you can explain why other first-world countries that also commonly prescribe these antidepressants dont share our problems with mass shootings

How have I shown I dont give a fuck? You came in spouting some bull shit that no one has ever said. You care more about guns than the actual issue which is why you came in with that nonsense.

Its becaue those people do what jersey did. They refuse to talk about guns and instead talk about something else. Like video games. Its a much bigger discussion. Its not guns its mental health!...no its both. And we can discuss both at the same time. Ignoring one of them isnt helping at all.

No, it's mostly mental health. You're just blaming the inanimate tool the crazy person is using and not the crazy person.

People who are determined to kill others will find a way even if guns are completely banned. A kid in Utah just brought a bomb to school. Muslim terrorists in Europe use knives and run people over with cars.

Yeah I mean there is no shortage of bombing incidents, and we recently hand an incident where someone rented a truck and ran down a crowded street full of people. Crazy assholes will find a way to kill people no matter what.

...and it's not like widespread killings weren't a thing before guns were invented anyways.

A tool design to make the task of killing easy. It's awfully strange how guns happen to be used in most of these cases and not some other tool that can be used as a weapon.

I'm all for the 2nd amendment but let's not pretend that the availability of guns isn't a contributor.

He's one of those guys that does nothing but strawmans and shit posts when it comes to political issues. Like pretty much every other conservative on this board

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/400-current-events/76401246

'Just because mental health problems exist doesn't mean it's not actually guns...'

But, yeah, it's not a topic on the first page saying it's not mental health that's the problem - just a strawman.
