“The United States does not have a monopoly on crazy people [laughter]… so what’s the difference?” Misplaced laughter, a President struggling to balance his tenor, a forum discussing parental shortcomings. The truth is sometimes like a wall up close; it’s so big we don’t realize it’s obstructing our view.[/quote]
Well we do prescribe more Psychotropic drugs such as SSRIs to our children than any other country. There’s been studies done on these drugs that have shown side effects of violent, aggressive and suicidal behavior in youths less than 24. The common thread in most of these killings has been the use or recent use of these classes of drugs by the perpetrator. In some cases the guns were obtained legally in others they were obtained illegally. Can you do something to keep guns and weapons out of the hands of people that are on these drugs? I suppose you can but you then run that risk that people that really need to be on these drugs for good reason decide not to be on them.
