Women, with a few notable exceptions, are not noted for mass killings. Something to do with a nurturing instinct probably.
Itâs a good question on young white males. Itâs pretty commonplace for the last few decades for parents to rush their âtroublesomeâ kids to the psychiatrist and get them pumped with medication.
Ah here, itâs not as if @anon7035031 has form for sourcing lies about shootings in the US from the INTERNET and repeating them here as fact, or anything like that.
Psychiatry, unlike psychology, is based on science. Very dubious science however, and much of it pseudoscience. You are out of your depth here pal, back off before you embarrass yourself further.
The article he referenced above is written by a psychologist which apparently is not science despite it being cited by our pal as scientific evidence. It is published on an online forum where the authors have to pay the cost of publication, presumably because the mainstream journals wonât publish. Despite saying that the issue is a US one with no relevance to the rest of the world the article he cites in support of his contention is written by a Welshman and an Englishman.
All over the place doesnât even begin to describe it.
Here you are. âThe association between SSRIs and convictions for violent crimes remains significant for individuals aged 15 - 24 years, but became non significant among older indivisualsâ.
Why do drug manufacturers put warnings on SSRIs regarding the danger of suicide and violent actions?
You posted up a bizarre claim that all school shooters were on SSRIs.
When pressed on this you posted a discredited report prepared by the Scientologists that said that 90% of school shooters were on SSRIs.
When pressed on this you posted a short twelve year old article from a trade paper referencing extracts from a longer article that we havenât seen that references some evidence of violent side effects of SSRIs, but so far as I could see didnât refer to school shootings.
When pressed on this again you then repeated the same exercise only with a different trade paper referencing a different article.
You are now trying to shift the argument from all school shooters are on SSRIs to there is some evidence of violent side effects with use of SSRIs.
You seem to have an unhealthy obsession with defending big pharma on this questionâŚ
Why do big pharma put warning labels on SSRIs highlighting the known side effects of suicide and violence?
Answer the question.
I am not arguing that SSRIs cause everyone who takes them to become suicidal or go on killing sprees. However, what the science says (and the mainstream media wonât by and large report) is that among young people aged 15-24, when brain development is still very active, there is a significant link between the use of SSRIs and convictions for violent crimes.
The Swedish study is from a highly respected Medical Institute, and unlike most medical studies was not funded by big pharma.
