Or lack of dealing with mental health issues properly. Thanks for your input:)

Yeah, it pisses me off that the media never blames the absentee parents or the psych meds, just the guns. It's like me smoking meth and grabbing a stuffed Winnie the Pooh doll and beating an old man to death and News at 6 has an expose on the latent violence of cartoon characters...

Yes. It is easier to look for quick fixes than the things that would take actual effort, money time and work.

It is a lot cheaper to use a drug than do proper counselling, psychotherapy or even supervision.
