Ban anti-depressants.

The logic supporting this claim is deeply flawed. Sorry.

While the logic is flawed, there is a connection which must be examined.

Totally agree. There’s still a point of personal choice and responsibility when on meds, particularly with college-age students. If you pick up a gun and choose to murder someone, you can choose not to...

OK, how about: "Ban people on anti-depressants that have a demonstrated proclivity to cause mania in any significant percentage of those administered the drug, unless they are closely supervised to eliminate the possibility that the manifestation of said mania might result in the patient causing harm to himself or others."

How about: take anti-depressants and you get no guns.

Depression is one of a class of ailments characteristic to our modern time where the diagnosis leads the disease and the patient is the arbiter of treatment.

Where no clear lines are drawn, no conclusions are valid.
