All these shootings have occurred SINCE the introduction of these "magic bullet" drugs to the formulary, and able to be prescribed by any M. D., whether or not he knew what the (side)effects could/would be.
We have an epidemic of brain-changed, mind-bent, drugged individuals, and I surmise that these drugs promote yhe horrible shooting massacres. One of the chapters in this volume deals with a study on the effects and proliferation of the benzodiazepine Xanax, an anti-anxiety drug. Robert Whitaker discusses this whole issue at "Mad In America" (click here)
Lee Harvey Oswald 1963 former Marine sniper, (LSD?) the CIA conducted experiments on unwitting Americans (click here)
Charles Whitman 1966 Marine veteran, (Thorazine?) In 1952, the military hospital in Paris, to try CPZ in the treatment of one of their patients (click here)
Whitman history: Before the attack, Whitman had sought professional help for "overwhelming violent impulses" (click here)
Anthony Barbaro 1974 High school senior, marksman; (Valium?) depressed, desired to end his life (click here)
Then, following this, an explosion of (copycat?) school massacres.
Eric Harris, Dylan Klebold 1999 both fascinated with arms, explosives; Harris medicated with Zoloft, then Luvox (click here) Both were substance abusers.
Adam Lanza 2013 fascinated with guns' (Lexapro?) Lexapro and Celexa (click here)

Our military is heavily invokved with distributing psychoactive drugs, and has done so since Vietnam. It is a real problem with recent Near East deployments of combat troops:

The benzodiazepine antianxiety drugs are paarticularly addictive, to the point that, for some individuals, your brain chemistry is so changed that you cannot get off them. I know one such person that lioves in constant depressive torment. The literature shows that this involvement can lead to suicide and/or extrenely violent actions:
"Oral Benzodiazepines Names, Side Effects, and Addiction" (click here)
" It is very difficult to recover from benzodiazepine addiction because these drugs change the chemistry of the brain. Contact a drug addiction treatment center if you or a loved one are suffering from a addiction. Quitting cold turkey is not likely to be successful and can be dangerous because of symptoms of withdrawal. Doctors and other health care professionals that treat addiction will formulate a taper schedule to slowly wean off the medication to reduce the severity of withdrawal symptoms during treatment."

THIS IS WHY THIS IS NOT THE FBI'S PROBLEM. IT IS THE SHAMEFUL CONDUCT OF THE PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES AND THEIR COHORT ADVERISERS AND SALES PEOPLE, THE MEDICAL COMMUNITY.
THE DRUG CONNECTION OF THESE SHOOTERS,
THEIR MENTAL STATES AND THEIR DRUGS
HAS BEEN SO DE-EMPHASIZED IN THE MEDIA
AS TO HIDE THEM,
AND TO MINIMIZE THE HARM TO PROFITABILITY
OF THESE POISONS,
IMHO
Benzodiazepines:
alprazolam (Xanax)
clobazam (Onfi)
clonazepam (Klonopin)
clorazepate (Tranxene)
chlordiazepoxide (Librium)
diazepam (Valium)
estazolam (Prosom)
lorazepam (Ativan)
oxazepam (Serax)
temazepam (Restoril)
triazolam (Halcion)
(and others)
