We are too reactionary with our laws and mental health system.

They talk about guns being the problem, but what I see is people reacting by arming themselves due to crazies, druggies, rapists, murderers and felons being re-released into society in droves after being stuck in a 10x10 rape cage for 5-10 years...as if that will rehab them into proper citizen.

People are scared. Combined with the class warfare and legislation trying to deprive them of their rights, can you blame them?

Crazy dude goes crazy in a movie theater. People buy guns so that they have a fighting chance in this situation. Then they are likened to said criminal solely for having guns and legislation is imposed on them as a result.

Makes no sense.

A good article, but I think it is far more likely that the shooters in these instances are likely to be on psychotropic drugs, not for those on psychotropic drugs to be more likely to go on a rampage. The people who take them and then commit a mass killing are a tiny percentage of those who take the drugs in the US and elsewhere.

Yeah, they're statistical outliers and a lot of them actually stop taking the medication for various reasons.

There is commonality in their biology though. There are distinct patterns here that get overshadowed by this anti-gun rhetoric.

The killer in IV did his own research on the drug prescribed, then decided it wasn't right for him so he stopped.
