The shooter also posted several videos on YouTube about anti-depressant medicines that he was taking and showed a tabletop full of all sorts of pills he was prescribed.

Yes, once again more of these symptom hiding medications playing a part in mass-killing.

Yeah, I saw the videos. Like a scene from Quadrophenia.

I’m sort of split on that issue. if we took a bunch of “normal” people and gave them Prozac and some turned into psycho killers, maybe I’d see a cause/effect. But as it is, there must be something wrong or off or needing repair to get on the meds, and that sample of people by definition is not “normal”. it’s like assuming blood pressure medicine causes stroke because so many people on those meds have strokes, compared to people who don’t take them.
