That is total garbage.

Threats of violence and suicide versus a near-normal life? The only difference is one small pill a day that works miracles.

Have you ever lived with a clinically depressed person, either unipolar or bipolar, who is untreated?

If not, shut up. I have. What you posted is ignorant balderdash.

I am so sick and tired of reading the blame of mass killers on prescription drugs. It has the same lack of logic as the gun banners.

Questions:

1. How do you know that the use of prescription drugs does not keep us safe from thousands of similar mentally ill ?
2. How do you know that (assuming a drug was used by the perpetrator)the drug caused the action and that the drug had its desired affect?
3. How do you know the drug was used as prescribed? Did the person skip doses, did he combine it with other drugs?
4. Do you believe that any medicines are effective? If so, why are you against psychotropic drugs?
5. Do you realize that other foods and environmental triggers are capable of affecting our hormones and resulting psychology? Do we ban everything that does the same?
6. Many mentally ill seek self medication which leads them to alcohol abuse, drug abuse, adrenalin seeking behaviors, etc. Do we let the mentally seek such destructive behavior or do we try to regulate it with the use of science, measure and consult?

I assume you and the gun grabbers have the same motive that is based on denial that bad things happen to good people. We do not have control over many of these events. No laws will protect us. No gun laws, no drug bans etc will protect.

Only love will endure. Only love will bear all things.
