Stephen Paddock, Omar Mateen, Gavin Long, Eric Harris, Dylan Klebold, James Holmes, and now, Nikolas Cruz all have one thing in common other than the mass murders they carried out. They were all reportedly taking prescription drugs which alter their state of mind and carry a host of negative side effects ranging from aggression and suicide to homicidal ideation. Suicide, birth defects, heart problems, hostility, violence, aggression, hallucinations, self-harm, delusional thinking, homicidal ideation, and death are just a few of the side effects caused by the medication taken by the monsters named above, some of which are known as SSRIs (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors), or antidepressants. There have been 150 studies in 17 countries on antidepressant-induced side effects. There have been 134 drug regulatory agency warnings from 11 countries and the EU warning about the dangerous side effects of antidepressants. Despite this deadly laundry list of potential reactions to these medications, their use has skyrocketed by 400% since 1988. Coincidentally, as antidepressant use went up, so did mass shootings. The website SSRIstories.org has been documenting the link between selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and violence. On the website is a collection of over 6,000 stories that have appeared in local media (newspapers, TV, scientific journals) in which prescription drugs were mentioned and in which the drugs may be linked to a variety of adverse outcomes including most of the mass shootings which have taken place on US soil. As the Citizens Commission on Human Rights notes, 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. This is not about an isolated incident or two but numerous shootings. The issue of psychotropic medication playing a role in mass shootings is not some conspiracy theory. It is very real and the drug manufacturers list these potentially deadly side effects on the very inserts of every one of these drugs. But the mainstream media and the government continue to ignore or suppress this information. Why is that? In a clear example of how beholden mainstream media is to the pharmaceutical industries who manufacture and market these drugs, FOX News’ Sean Hannity was recorded this week, blatantly cutting off a reporter who dared mention Nikolas Cruz’s reported association with antidepressants. In a news segment this week, Hannity was interviewing radio talk show host, Gina Loudon who tried to bring up Cruz’s association with SSRIs. “I think we have to take a hard look at one thing we’re not talking about yet too, Sean, and that is psychotropic drugs,” Loudon says. “My guess is, we’ll find out like most of these shooters…..” she says, just before Hannity jumps in to silence her. Hannity then shuts up Loudon and moves to the doctor next to her. Just like that, all talk which was implicating big pharma in their role in mass shootings was effectively silenced. It is no secret that the pharmaceutical industry wields immense control over the government and the media. It is their control which keeps any negative press about their dangerous products from airing. However, most people likely do not know the scope of this control. As Mike Papantonio, attorney and host of the international television show America’s Lawyer, explains, with the exception of CBS, every major media outlet in the United States shares at least one board member with at least one pharmaceutical company. To put that into perspective: These board members wake up, go to a meeting at Merck or Pfizer, then they have their driver take them over to a meeting with NBC to decide what kind of programming that network is going to air. In the report below, Papantonio explains how the billions of dollars big pharma gives to mainstream media outlets every year is used to keep them subservient and complicit in covering up the slew of deadly side effects from their products. How much longer will we allow these billion-dollar drug companies to control the narrative and not let this conversation take place? How many more mass shootings will take place before Americans wake up to this reality?

Depression is theorised as turning anger inward against one's self. Certain medications may be benificial in releasing that anger outward. The question becomes, "outward on whom? Be very careful in prescribing these medications. They are no easy substitute for competent psychotherapy. To mny practitioners are inadaquatly trained in psychotherapy. They are trained to simply dish out pills.
After some diligent research, I must now ask if prescription drugs ae driving mass shootings, as the author of the article so vaguely contends....or is the author simply writing and alluding to that in order to advance his agenda? While mass shootings can indirectly be tied to prescription drugs by their mere use to treat the mental instability of the shooters, the use of prescription drugs should never be used as a good predictor of mass shootings or the resultant cause thereof. A study in the American Journal of Public Health found that databases that track gun homicides show that less than 5 percent of 120,000 gun-related killings in America between 2001 and 2010 were committed by people with a diagnosed mental illness....I might add, and whose mental illnesses were being treated by prescription drugs. One of the biggest problems of trying to link the use of prescription drugs to mass shootings and say that “psychotropic drugs” affected a mass shooter’’s mental state is there is no evidence to support the claim, only anecdotal stories....while the strongest predictors of violence include alcohol and illegal drug abuse often combined with a history of domestic violence.

What a shock - Parsons defending Big Pharma and ignoring the link between virtually ALL mass school shootings in the past 30 years and psychotropic, FDA-approved drugs. You're as predictable as the sunrise. Fact: At least 36 school shootings and/or school-related acts of violence have been committed by those taking or withdrawing from psychiatric drugs resulting in 172 wounded and 80 killed (in other school shootings, information about their drug use was never made public—neither confirming or refuting if they were under the influence of prescribed 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. (See full list at the link) The below list includes individuals documented to have been under the influence of psychiatric drugs and not only includes mass shootings, but the use of knives, swords and bombs. 27 international drug regulatory agency warnings cite side effects including mania, violence, psychosis and even homicidal ideation. My guess is that he didn't want to be sued for implying that Nicholas Cruz was on drugs.
My guess is that Hannity was ordered to cut off the guest so FOX wouldn't lose any of the millions of dollars in advertising revenues from Big Pharma. Is Hannity anti-gun?
Deckard, I have a question that needs to be answered. I turn to you for an answer because you are the most knowledgeable person I can think of who can answer it since you keep abreast of all the mass murders and know the reason they happen. Before asking he question, I will present some researched information. At last count, the population in America was 300,100,000 people. scientific American research shows that 1 in 6 Americans takes a psychiatric drug. Antidepressants were most common, followed by anxiety relievers and antipsychotics. All this means that currently in America, there are 50,026,370 people on psychiatric drugs. My Question: If it is, as Matt Argorist says and you agree, that psychiatric drugs are the cause of the 18 mass shootings that have occurred this year.....are we to expect mass murder attacks from the other 50,026,552 people who are currently taking the antidepressants, anxiety relievers and antipsychotics....psychiatric drug? If not.....then why not?

This article is simply a continuation in the long series of articles mounted to perpetrate a vicious broadside attack on the pharmaceutical industry. Stephen Paddock, Omar Mateen, Gavin Long, Eric Harris, Dylan Klebold, James Holmes, and now, Nikolas Cruz all have one thing in common other than the mass murders they carried out. They were all reportedly taking prescription drugs which alter their state of mind and carry a host of negative side effects ranging from aggression and suicide to homicidal ideation. [Underline Added].
This yellow journalism article seeks to implant in the minds of the readers that prescription drugs is the sole culprit to be blamed for all the mass shootings. How much longer will we allow these billion-dollar drug companies to control the narrative and not let this conversation take place? How many more mass shootings will take place before Americans wake up to this reality?
No, Deckard....prescription drugs from “billion-dollar drug companies” are not the source that causes the mass shootings problem. Americans are waking up to the reality there are individuals and entities who as their primary goal seek to destroy this country from within by planting and spreading malicious propaganda. And you, Deckard, should cease being their messenger goober to support their, and perhaps your, agenda.
