Nearly Every Mass Shooting In The Last 20 Years Shares One Thing In Common, And It Isn’t Weapons
The Liberty Crier ^ | Nov 10,2013 | Dan Roberts

Posted on 05/06/2014 8:07:03 AM PDT by The Sons of Liberty

Manasquan, NJ - Nearly every mass shooting incident in the last twenty years, and multiple other instances of suicide and isolated shootings all share one thing in common, and its not the weapons used.
The overwhelming evidence suggests the single largest common factor in all of these incidents is that all of the perpetrators were either actively taking powerful psychotropic drugs or had been at some point in the immediate past before they committed their crimes.
Multiple credible scientific studies going back more then a decade, as well as internal documents from certain pharmaceutical companies that suppressed the information show that SSRI drugs ( Selective Serotonin Re-Uptake Inhibitors ) have well known, but unreported side effects, including but not limited to suicide and other violent behavior. One need only Google relevant key words or phrases to see for themselves. www.ssristories.com is one popular site that has documented over 4500 “ Mainstream Media “ reported cases from around the World of aberrant or violent behavior by those taking these powerful drugs…

…On to the list of mass shooters and the stark link to psychotropic drugs.

Eric Harris age 17 (first on Zoloft then Luvox) and Dylan Klebold aged 18 (Columbine school shooting in Littleton, Colorado), killed 12 students and 1 teacher, and wounded 23 others, before killing themselves. Klebold’s medical records have never been made available to the public.

Kevin Rider, age 14, was withdrawing from Prozac when he died from a gunshot wound to his head. Initially it was ruled a suicide, but two years later, the investigation into his death was opened as a possible homicide. The prime suspect, also age 14, had been taking Zoloft and other SSRI antidepressants.

Alex Kim, age 13, hanged himself shortly after his Lexapro prescription had been doubled.

Diane Routhier was prescribed Welbutrin for gallstone problems. Six days later, after suffering many adverse effects of the drug, she shot herself.

Kara Jaye Anne Fuller-Otter, age 12, was on Paxil when she hanged herself from a hook in her closet. Kara’s parents said “…. the damn doctor wouldn’t take her off it and I asked him to when we went in on the second visit. I told him I thought she was having some sort of reaction to Paxil…”)

Gareth Christian, Vancouver, age 18, was on Paxil when he committed suicide in 2002,

Steven Kazmierczak, age 27, shot and killed five people and wounded 21 others before killing himself in a Northern Illinois University auditorium. According to his girlfriend, he had recently been taking Prozac, Xanax and Ambien. Toxicology results showed that he still had trace amounts of Xanax in his system.

What drugs was Jacob Tyler Roberts on, age 22, killed 2 injured 1, Clackamas Or

What drugs was Adam Peter Lanza on, age 20, Killed 26 and wounded 2 in Newtown Ct

Those focusing on further firearms bans or magazine restrictions are clearly focusing on the wrong issue and asking the wrong questions, either as a deliberate attempt to hide these links, or out of complete and utter ignorance.

We also have a unique situation where the kids on these SSRI drugs have been whiling away their time playing violent video games.
I agree the massive intake of carbs prescribed by the government FDA the last thirty years hasn’t helped matters at all. And now they tell us the science that led to recommending a high carb diet was both flawed and politically manipulated!

Yeah both the high fructose corn sugar and the emphasis on carbs date back to the 1970’s. the interesting thing on one of the links I presented was that the FDA food chart that came out in the 1970’s which showed carbs as the place where people are supposed to get most of their calories—was pretty heavily politicized. Further, the data suggest that it is not fat that causes fat but rather the sugar.

The high fructose corn sugar was first introduced into darn near everything during the 1970’s

>>But they will be doing sugar.<<

I am a boomer and grew up eating all kinds of candy and sodas all the time.

I checked and I am not nor have I ever been a mass killer.

It was the permissive society inculcating the idea “if you want to do it, it is OK.” When you are told that from the moment you are born, you eventually develop a pathological sociopathic narcissism.

The death of shame was the death of many.

Glad to hear that. But you need to know that people are different not only externally but internally. And there are always outliers. Always.

That said, I loved my sodas and candy too as a kid. Never noticed the ups and downs they caused. They never caused me problems that I was aware of. However, in recent years I have noticed the ups and downs —and the weigh gain—the sugars cause. So I’ve cut back considerably. I’m past 60.

Don’t know enough about them to have an opinion.

I’ve just been researching sugar for the last month or two for my own reasons and just noticed the connection between sugar and the SSRI drugs.

Most doctors have been taught that there is little or no spiritual element to mental illness. The fact is that there is no such thing as mental illness...it is all demon possession..period. And the mood altering drugs only give power and strength to those demons of the mind.

Do you realize that fluoridation is the most monstrously conceived and dangerous Communist plot we have ever had to face?’”
“I can no longer sit back and allow Communist infiltration, Communist indoctrination, Communist subversion and the international Communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.

Any attempt to sap or impurify our precious bodily fluids should be dealt with harshly and swiftly. There can be no exceptions.

Is it possible to address this crisis?

It won’t be dealt with harshly or swiftly but it will be dealt with slowly over time. About like tobacco.

But you understand you’ve moved into a lefty position.

But the fact is, I don’t know what should be done by government beyond obvious stuff like publish the kinds of food charts that minimize foods that have refined flour.

Maybe even ban high fructose corn sugar. Or re categorize it as an alcohol precurser or some such. But sheesh I’m not sufficiently passionate about the subject to take the abuse that would come from advocating that the government did anything.

So the best you can do right now is keep people informed about stuff that won’t do them a lick of good.

Because there won’t be any kind of advertising campaign come on soon where the advertiser says. “Eat this. We guarantee that this won’t do you a lick of good. Our food might even kill you if you use it often enough and long enough. We’re so wicked we expect to soon be out of business. So get it now while still can.”

It is absolutely carbs causing the fat. Any carbohydrate, from HFCS to whole wheat bread, not metabolized into energy is stored in the body as fat. This includes all those whole grains they keep pushing on us too. Nobody needs 11 servings of grains a day, not even an Amish farmer.

Damn, I never knew. I'll repent and believe any garbage that comes along from now on.

And crop circles.

yeah there is definitely a spritual element to mental illness— in some cases but not all. Some people are definitely gone. they needed no pushing. But many may well have been pushed.

Typically what I hear doctors say is that 2/3’ds-3/4 of the people in hospitals are there for lifestyle/environmental reasons. Only 1/3-1/4 are in hospitals for genetic reasons.

I have no clue as to what the ratios are in mental institutions for people who were born crazy and people who were driven crazy. But I wouldn’t be surprised if the ratio’s for mental illness were not similiar to the ratios for physical illness.

For both physical and mental illness in many cases there is a spiritual element.

One of the many great gifts that Jesus gives to men and women who believe in Him—is a sound mind.

Well, yes...but at some point in life and often in most of their lives, most everyone has evil spirits in possession to some degree of their bodies. This is the very reason for illneses, both mental and otherwise...probably 99% of them. God made the human body perfect machines for our souls, but satan has dominion here and to the degree that we unwittingly go along with him Olin prideful attitudes, to that degree do we become diseased.

I’ve been in Wise Food stores in Pennsylvania. The Amish will be shopping next to the non Amish locals. The Amish are all thin as rails and the locals are all fat. They’re all from fairly similiar genetic stock. They’re socio economically about the same.

So why are the Amish thin and the locals fat? The reason is that the Amish do hard physical labor every day. The locals don’t do hard physical labor even when they’re working.

Great distance runners or swimmers will carb up before a meet. They have very similiar builds as the Amish. For similar reasons. Hey they need the extra calories.

Professional football players will often gain 100-200 pounds when they retire because they’re still taking in 8000 calories a day when they should be taking in only 2000 calories. Why? Because they’re not burning calories at the high rate that they were before.

For most sedentary people 1500 calories a day is plenty.

If you want to lose weight, you have to eat less and exercise more.

.............
Actually, increasing disbelieving stuff has become a conservative opinion on a whole host of positions.
..................
Mocking kookery is a lefty position?.
...........
The leftist are actually better at mockery than conservatives — however, leftists are kooks. So this one is kind of tough to tweezer.
..............
Damn, I never knew. I’ll repent and believe any garbage that comes along from now on.
......
That would be a mistake. Don’t do that.
.............
And crop circles.
..............
For example. Its probably not a good idea to believe that crop circles have any kind of supernatural or extra terrestrial origin. Rather they likely showcase the ground drawing talents of some of the locals. There’s likely more profitable things to ponder.

The FR search gizmo is an exercise in self-abuse. I find articles sooner (instead of never) by using Bing with “freerepublic.com” and title words.

God made the human body perfect machines for our souls,
.................
So you understand, this is not the Christian position. Christians believe that we are fallen creatures from the beginning because of the sin of Adam. That those who believe in Jesus are born again. Jesus has become the new Adam. Jesus has gone to heaven in the flesh. Those of us on earth, even though we are born again, still commit sins. But because we believe in Jesus we become ever more like him throughout our lives. When we die our spirits go to heaven to meet Jesus. When Jesus returns to earth from heaven, the spirits of the dead in heaven who are those who —believed in Jesus— will be reunited with their glorified bodies.

Now I understand that I’ve said a mouth full.

Nor these details are not particularly interesting or pertinent to me now. But I do know in the year or so before my father died in 2004 he wanted to know all about this stuff. And he wanted to be told about it in the presence of my mother. So they both would understand the journey that was/is ahead of them.
