Kaotic, you have yet to state exactly what your point is. I have asked you multiple times in this thread.

The article talked about video games, home schooling and anti-psychotic prescriptions. Out of that list, which one do you blame?

So what is that "something else" is? Stop hiding behind ambiguity and let it all hang. Come out and say it already.


You clearly don't understand where that article is coming from. They are linking antidepressant medication to these types of shootings. It even gives situations from the past, back to the Reagan assassination attempt up to current situations. I'm guessing you simply don't understand English, I don't know how much clearer that article has to be.

Ahh OK, it's clear now. You simply don't understand English.

Quote:
Since last month’s horrifying and heartbreaking school massacre in Newtown, Conn., politicians and the press have, as everyone knows, been totally obsessed with firearms.

Indeed, President Obama has vowed to impose strong new gun-control measures on the nation – very soon, with or without Congress.

Other possible factors – from violent video games to the “failure of our mental-health system” to the unintended consequences of making schools “gun-free zones” – have taken a back seat to guns. Within hours of the gruesome mega-crime, the media had provided extensive, round-the-clock coverage of precisely which firearms, manufacturers and calibers the perpetrator had used, how he had obtained them from his mother, where they were originally purchased, and so on.

But where, I’d like to ask my colleagues in the media, is the reporting about the psychiatric medications the perpetrator – who had been under treatment for mental-health problems – may have been taking?

The person writing the article was citing Media as to saying it was video games, ect. ect. But if you pay attention the article writer goes to say under the highlighted in the quote above.

I'm not blaming anything other than Adam Lanza for the massacre in Newtown.

Come on man, even Wolfgang with his 3rd grade education is able to comprehend the point of that article. ;)

Thank the lord, someone finally said it!

Linking - they implied causation, when they don't even have a correlation. Is there a study that links killing sprees with antidepressant medications? Why latch on medication and not some other factor (like home schooling, lol)? How do you know it is medication and not depressed people (that tend to be on antidepressant medication)? Would you consider that it could be that medication failure (and hundreds would-be killing sprees that it helps to stop) and not medication itself that is possible link?

Problem with these kinds of opinions is that they are baseless speculation. There might be one cause, there might be none or hundred different ones. We don't know. What we know is that these causes lead these people to pick up an implement of war, designed for killing people, and go on a killing spree. We know that in other countries, where getting your hands on such implements of war is harder, people still go on a killing sprees, but they are a lot less deadly.

Hey, if you have some pictures of those that would be great for me to use to help my 3 year old nephew understand the concept.

As opposed to the scientific evidence you have showing that guns cause murders?

You must have forgotten about the Massacre in Norway where the guy killed 87 people because he was the only one with a gun.
