Dr. Ignatius Piazza of Front Sight points to Psych Drugs, Not Guns, Doing the Killing

It's clear as day - we don't have a gun violence problem. And I am certain we also do not have a mental health problem.  The problem that we have is a drug pushing government sponsored industry.  As Dr. Piazza points out,  drugs are being given to children (even to two year old toddlers) in order to suppress "challenges of youth that every prior generation had overcome naturally through the process of social maturity."
Front Sight Special Blog: Psych Drugs, Not Guns, Doing the Killing: In “Your Legacy,” I interviewed people of age who actually experienced an America when guns were so freely available to children and youth, that you could order them through the mail with no ID required, no waiting period, and literally carry them to school to place in the back of the classroom with no problems at all.  
During this time, when guns were the most accessible in our country’s entire history, there were no school shootings, drive by shootings, or murderous teenage rampages.   
What changed? Here is what changed: Powerful psych drugs were developed and became the profitable, prescription answer to a wide variety of extremely questionable if not outright fabricated mental disorder diagnosis of youth.  
Little Johnny doesn’t want to go to school? Take this pill… Little Johnny isn’t learning? Take this pill…  Little Johnny feels anxious? Take this pill… Little Johnny is sad? Take this pill… Little Johnny is restless?  Take this pill… Little Johnny is rebellious? Take this pill…  
And once Little Johnny started taking the brightly colored pills to handle the normal challenges of youth that every prior generation had overcome naturally through the process of social maturity, Little Johnny began the downward spiral of adverse prescription drug side effects leading to multiple prescription, psycho drug cocktails… stronger drugs… physical and psychological dependency… and the now infamous and reoccurring homicidal and suicidal reactions caused by these very powerful, mind bending drugs.
The evidence is there.  These drug pushers are destroying us, and have fooled us into embracing their acts.
Some 90 percent of school shootings over more than a decade have been linked to a widely prescribed type of antidepressant called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors or SSRIs, according to British psychiatrist Dr. David Healy, a founder of RxISK.org, an independent website for researching and reporting on prescription drugs.

In many school shootings carried out by minors, court documents are sealed and the extent of chemical use is unknown to the public. 
But in a number of high-profile cases, the link has been reported:

  • Kip Kinkel was withdrawing from Prozac and had been prescribed Ritalin when he murdered his mother and stepfather then shot 22 classmates, killing two, in 1998.
  • Christopher Pittman was withdrawing from Luvox and from Paxil when he killed his paternal grandparents in 2001.
  • Elizabeth Bush, who fired at fellow students in Williamsport, Pa., in 2001, wounding one, was on Prozac.
  • Jason Hoffman, was on Effexor and Celexa when he opened fire at his El Cajon, Calif., high school, wounding five.
  • Shawn Cooper of Notus, Idaho, was on antidepressants when he fired a shotgun on students and staff.
  • T.J. Solomon, on antidepressants, wounded six at his Conyers, Ga., high school.
  • Eric Harris was taking Luvox when he and fellow student Dylan Klebold killed 12 students and a teacher and wounded 24 others before turning their guns on themselves at Columbine High School in Colorado.
  • At Virginia Tech in 2007, where 32 were murdered, authorities found “prescription medications related to the treatment of psychological problems had been found among Mr. Cho’s effects,” according to the New York Times.

No Lawyers - Only Guns and Money: Purdue University Homeland Security Institute: Guns In Schools Save Lives

Via No Lawyers - Only Guns and Money:
Dr. J. Eric Dietz, director of the Purdue University's Homeland Security Institute, presented research at the recent NRA Annual Meeting in Indianapolis regarding active shooters in schools. Their threat assessment modeling program examined the active shooter scenario and looked at factors that would be most effective in reducing casualties. These factors included locked doors, school resource officers, and staff carrying concealed.  
The control scenario was just a school with locked doors and no resource officers or staff with concealed carry permits. The researchers found that the control scenario had the most casualties and the longest response time. Their model showed that the response time would be 10-12 minutes and an average of 20 casualties. Their model used historical active shooter data to arrive at this.  
When a school resource officer is introduced to the scenario, response times dropped to a quarter of the original times and casualties were reduced by two-thirds.
It makes perfect sense, if you think about it calmly, rationally, and without any bias against firearms. If Lauren Rousseau or Rachel D'Avino had been armed, they might not have lived through Sandy Hook. They might still have been killed, along with all of the children in the room with them.  However, no one in their right mind could argue that things might have been different. Instead of helpless victims, they might have been survivors.

Affirmative action hire? Gunman arrives, female "security" guard runs, male bouncer bounces!

Outstanding job Mr. Eric Wasson!  You saved several lives that night, and have proven yourself a shining example of courage.  As for your partner, I am going to guess the gal is an affirmative action hire, based on her behavior.  Good thing you were hired for your skill and courage.
When a man holding a gun came to the door of the St. Paul bar where Eric Wasson is a security guard, Wasson was determined not to let the man get past him.
Wasson tried to defuse the situation by smiling at the man and saying, "Hey, what's going on?" He also told the man to calm down.  
The man told Wasson to move and raised his gun, Wasson recalled.  
Wasson worried about the more than 150 people inside Johnny Baby's on University  
Avenue, and he rushed the man, whose gun went off twice as they struggled. No one was struck.
Update:
The original video has been removed from Youtube, but here is a LiveLeak link. I have uploaded the video here as well.
 
 
This GIF shows the hero, Eric Wasson, but not the security chick running away and pushing past the customers - it starts just after she ran away.
 
 
When a man with a gun walked into the St. Paul bar where Eric Wasson was working as a security guard, it flashed through Wasson's mind that his mother shouldn't lose a second son.  
Wasson's brother was fatally shot in 2009.  
"If I got killed out here, if I got hurt, what about my mama?" Wasson said. "When it boils down, my mama don't deserve that."  
Wasson took action. When talking to the gunman didn't work, the former high school and college football player rushed him. The gun went off twice as they struggled and Wasson disarmed him. No one was injured.
