Deal with the cause of recent violence
A major contributing factor to violence in our society is the over-prescription of antidepressants (SSRI's). These dangerous substances have been involved in virtually every mass killing in our country since regulations on their usage were loosened in the 1980's. SSRI's have been proven to cause homicidal and suicidal ideation, mania, and manic episodes which are frequently accompanied by violence.
Healthcare professionals are coerced and bribed into prescribing SSRI's for everything from poor digestion to a rash to normal unhappiness. While these drugs do have an appropriate application for a very select type of condition, their prominence and overuse in our society has the net effect of manufacturing the criminally insane.
Please thoroughly investigate the effects of SSRI's on our society and redirect the conversation to identifying the root CAUSE of the epidemic of violence we've seen in this country for the past few decades.
