A List of Killers in Public School Shootings
The research looked at 46 different school shootings, over the period of 20 years, looking for the answer to these four questions.
1. Was the killer prescribed psychotropic medication before the violence?*
2. Did the killer's motivation involve a girlfriend?
3. Was the killer religiously motivated?
4. Did the killer have a preoccupation with guns?
This study mainly looks at school shootings where more than one victim was involved or where the shooter ended it by committing suicide. The reader should also understand that withdrawal from some psychotropic medication can also causes violent side effects. Therefore, those individuals who stopped taking medication shortly before their violence are also included in the drug connection. Question Marks indicate the need for more study.
The main cause for inaccuracy in the study
1. The number of the killers who were taking unprescribed medication at the time of their violence is unknown.
2. The number of killers who were prescribed medication is probably higher than study indicates since
data is hard to accumulate when the justice system will not release the medical records or sometimes even the names of minors.
Whenever violent acts occur, the victim's friends and families ask why. This table shows one main reason why child violence is up. The question that should be asked is, why are we allowing it to continue.
Looking at the different cases, there often appeared to be multiple causes, a combination of being bullied, violent music or movies, loneliness, etc. Add to this the loss of reason, reality and restraint cause by being intoxicated (medicated) and you have a recipe for disaster.
I know that the documentation will not hold up in court; it is hard to accumulate data when the justice system protects the privacy of minors who are accused of a crime. However, there is enough evidence, proving a trend, that it should be researched further. It is time that we held the pharmaceutical companies accountable for what they are doing to our children.
