Chris Kyle dead.

Bill, I just can't accept the analogy or your 100% confidence in meds.

My brother had a break down while enrolled in Rice University in the late 60's. He was in Navy ROTC. Everything seemed normal, and then a break down within days of a ROTC "party". There was a suspicion that he was a casualty of the CIAs LSD program (MKUltra). I haven't found any evidence it was conducted at Rice University or not...

I do know that on some of the meds, he was fine. On some meds, he was an absolute menace.

I'm sure you don't intend to omit, but not everyone reacts the same to all of the meds. Some people will have adverse side effects to include undesired behaviors and/or a lack of ability to process right from wrong.

I'm not suggesting that all meds are EVIL...I get that some people need to be on meds. But I firmly believe that our society is over medicated and over vaccinated.

I agree our mental health system is broke...I'll thank the ACLU for that one (patients rights). Sure, reform was needed but we ended up with no mental health institutions to speak of when we really needed to fix the abuses.

You can't ignore that the overwhelming majority of "mass murder" shootings were perpetrated teenagers or young adults who were on psychotropic meds...that has to be a huge RED FLAG.

I'm with LRRPF52...I don't fully trust the "double blind" studies. I've done Operations Research...data can be manipulated.

Bjorn:

That's why there are Peer Reviews. Your Operations Research studies for example. Were they peer reviewed by a board that existed outside of your organization and whose sole purpose was to see if you were manipulating your data? I guarantee you that if you tried to manipulate samples, data, or statistics, it would be called out very quickly.

My bet with this whole nasty situation is the murderer was screwed up well before he went into the Marines. I would like to see some demographics on the guy.
