The next question is: “Why?”
Correlation does not equal causation.
A more accurate connection would be that at that time, prayer was eliminated from schools.
Why no evidence cited, beyond time frames, of a connection between SSRI’s and violence? Because there is none?
A great many factors in society changed from the 1960s onward, including the breakdown of family and social institutions, as well as the introduction of the hula hoop.
I’m not sure why its obvious that anti-depressant drugs are the factor responsible for mass killings.
unnatural supplements cannot do the same as natural. God created plenty of natural ways to deal with depression and axiety etc but Rx and doctors keep wanting to think they know better (no need for God) and they hurt many people in the process of their selling their stupidity to public.
The increase in rampage killings also began right after the Red Skelton Show went off the air. Coincidence? I think NOT!
This has been theorized for years here at FR.
There was a huge uproar in the 80s and 90s over kids being given Ritalin and other drugs to “moderate” their behavior. A lot of media stories wondering what these kids might be like later in life.
Looks like some of them were worth the concern back then.
MK Ultra even got a mention!
“Just leave the switch “ON”.
Ok, let’s put together a list, a long, long, long list, of all the things that began or ended, or increased or decreased in the same time frame. It would go into the hundreds, if not thousands. You’ve GOT to show that a very significant number of these perps were on the drugs you cite. Without that, you have garbage. Don’t we teach people how to think straight anymore? This is foolishness.
It didn’t take long for big pharma’s paid shills to show up.
For crying out loud people! Look around that website! It is Scientology! Anti-depressants don’t kill people. Evil people do.
Can’t wait for the “yep, it’s SSRI’s” blame game from our side after the next mass shooting.
