I agree that's a big part of the problem. We are an over-medicated society. Pharma gotta make that money regardless of potential side effects.


This but dumbass parents should be blamed the most. I know parents that bring their kid to the doctor for every little thing. It's perfectly normal for a 6 year old boy to be full of energy. It's also normal to feel sadness every now and then. As a society we medicate for everything when a change in diet and exercise will handle 90% of our problems.

Most have been on some kind of anti depressant/anxiety medication.


In fact, the real discussion is why are young boys put on a plethora of anti-depressants at a young age for just being a boy?

More focus on mental health and prescription drug abuse. We made a decision as a society decades ago to make it much harder to institutionalize people so crap like this happens more and more.


frick that.


We may not be able to stop shootings at Las Vegas outdoor concerts but we CAN stop mass murders in our schools.

Actually, it is when you use the media's definitely of "mass shooting"

The list is mostly drive by shootings/inner city shootings where multiple people were hit

So what happens when it’s revealed that the shooters parents are undocumented?

Who said anything about blacks? You do know more whites are on welfare, no?

So it's the government's job to regulate families? You conservatives are no different than Democrats.

I’m for population control. Our takers far out breed our suppliers. And that HAS to change. When trailer park Tammy spits out 5 frick trophies by 25 and makes $9 an hour, that bitch deserves to be put down like the rabbit she is.

Sterilization needs to move to the forefront. We can’t continue to allow the lowest of society to breed freely. It is unsustainable.

You're a fricking racist.

Most people on welfare are white.

I love that this is the new token narrative, even though it has never been proven that a majority of these shooters suffered from mental health issues.



What they suffer from is a lack of humanity. We’ve devalued human life to the point it means nothing to many kids. We’ve not taught them the concept of loving your neighbor as you love yourself. They know nothing of the concept of love and humanity. We’ve taught them to think only if self and what they want. We’ve raised a generation of pure psychopaths. May God have mercy on us all because what we’re seeing from this current generation of kids will only get worse as they reach adulthood.

My solution is to ban social media to kids under 18. I think it would fix a lot of the problems in school



Ok so limit free speech. Got it

murder, killing, genocide, etc. has been a part of human history forever... we, as a species, have done atrocious things to each other for eons, so to try to make it seem as if it's because of video games and abortion being legal is fallacy...


Okay, so your position is that shooings such as this are just part of life, so just accept it?

fact: 36 of the mass shootings since 1988 have been linked to anti-depressants but nope, can't be counted as a common factor in shootings.


I think the problem is giving kids a pill and thinking that its magically gonna fix the problem. PARENTS need to talk to their kids and listen to them not just give them a pill and expect things to get better!

i think a big reason is that we as a society are really big on personal freedoms. if you dont speak up about something, no one is going to insert themselves into your life or force something on you because we view shite like that to be against our natural way of life. you really cant be forced into therapy or shite unless youve committed a crime. you have to request it and thats before we get into the can of worms of how a lot of people view and respond to people wanting help with mental issues. we need to change our outlook on that, or we need to start allowing people to force kids into therapy if signs start popping up

WTF is the troll about that. It's the damn truth.


The music, tv, movie, video game argument has been made for decades. By that line of thought, we should have whole generations of sociopaths from exposure to violent media.

These kids are not taught how to deal with stress, depression, or emotions other than to just kill people or take medicine.


I agree with the first part of your statement but you lose me when you jump to a conclusion that kids only way of coping is to kill people. Millions of kids cope each day without harming anyone. Stop being so dramatic.
