MANIA The link between psychiatric drugs... mass murder

[seamusTX]

The original article conflated mass killings by children with mass killings of children by adults and other events like Andrea Yates.

Cho Seung-Hui, Harris, and Clebold were all 17 or older. They were not children even by current standards.

Mass killings by children are extremely rare. I think population growth alone partly explains why more occur now than in the past.

The difference is that guns have been around for centuries and school shootings seem to have started around the time shrinks started doping kids in large numbers ....

Really?

A brief bit of historical research proves this to be 100% incorrect! . . ..

And then as "proof", fewer than a dozen incidents in the past four centuries are cited, and it turns out most of those didn't even involve students as the shooter . . . and in some instances, there was no "shooter" at all!

Considering I had stated in earlier posts that the WND articles did not constitute scientific proof, I feel pretty good when people who take issue with my suppositions have to make that kind of a "stretch" in an attempt to refute them!
