From Prozac to Parkland: Are Psychiatric Drugs Causing Mass Shootings?
[image: from-prozac-to-parkland-are-psychiatric-drugs-causing-mass-shootings] Whille mass killers generally have guns in their hands, another commonality is that they often have psychiatric drugs in their blood. The difference, though, is that it isn't guns that have the side effect of "homicidal ideation."
Sarah Palin's ghostwritten website mocks Democrats' emotional response to the Florida shooting because they also support a woman's right to choose.

The reason we view the world darkly, he opines, is that our media are persistently negative: Every day the news is filled with stories about war, terrorism, crime, pollution, inequality, drug abuse and oppression.

The BBC excitedly report http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-43095881 on the latest developments in the Russia - Trump affair. The mood music is that Trump and the Russians were linked. However read on just past the point where lead line readers have stopped reading and you find this: 'Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein said there was no allegation that any American was "a knowing participant in this illegal activity" nor was it alleged that the meddling altered the election outcome.' Best not repeat that line too often BBC, you wouldn't want the mood music to go off-key.
