It’s always important to remember that the peak age for onset of schizophrenia in males is 18-25.

Almost all horrific mass shootings seem to involve young white males who were taking - or should have been taking - psychiatric medication.

This also fits the pattern for “suicide-by-police.”

One of the prime risk factors for suicide by healthy adults is schizophrenia.

No, it’s just the excuse that white males’ defense attorneys use when their clients do a mass shooting.

The problem is not schizophrenia or psychiatric medication, but evil perpetrated by misfits who have no regard for any human except for them selves.

We need to step away from the concept of insanity as an excuse for violent crime.
