> How much does anyone want to bet he was taking some kind of prescription drugs for “mental health” reasons?
I might take that bet. If he had mental health issues AND he was taking prescription drugs to address them, chances are good this tragedy might not have happened.
Most people with mental illness are not dangerous. Most dangerous people do not have mental health issues.
You might be right, chances are he might not have done it but chances are also that he could have been going off meds or something which set him off on a tangent, I guess we will know eventually, but I thought one can’t own a firearm if diagnosed “mentally ill” whatever that might mean, since according to Freud almost everyone fits into that description it just seems another way for the gun grabbers to get their way with the public and the soldiers. IN their perfect world nobody owns a firearm and everyone loves each other. Being able to prescribe drugs means he could have had access to just about anything for mood disorders, but if he felt everyone were insane then he probably felt no remorse in killing anyone, see where this goes, his line of training and thinking would have given him a sense of the futility in caring for life at all, add into the mix, war in the middle east and his religion, maybe he felt no less than anyone else killing people in the middle east, he had to rationalize it somehow...or he just went off his rocker, or always had been but somehow kept it under control for most his life.
