Five weeks ago, shortly after the last mass shooting occurred, I published a two-part series demonstrating the link between taking certain psychiatric medicines and developing violent psychotic behavior, which includes committing mass shootings. Although this idea is commonly viewed as a “conspiracy theory” this label is inappropriate because there is a large amount of evidence showing this does happen, and both the pharmaceutical companies and the FDA know beyond a shadow of a doubt that the link exists. (Snip) As far as I know, Tucker Carlson and Laura Ingraham are the only news hosts on any network who have ever been willing to air content critical of the pharmaceutical industry,

I can’t remember where I read or heard this — but someone had friends visiting from Europe, and the Europeans were appalled at the number of pharma ads on tv.

SSRIs are to cause suicidal thoughts and ideations in young people up to around 24 years of age. Trouble is most people that have them do not seek medical or psychiatric help.

The depth of depravity we see all around us in every aspect of our lives is in direct correlation to the evil that comes from the love of money. When will we see a movement crying out for drug control? It will likely, never happen.

SSRI is an acronym for Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors, a psychiatric drug. I dislike the use of acronyms without explanation.

Drugs are no substitute for godly discipline. So many misguided parents out there. This is one of our greatest sins.

We just have a lot more low quality people in our society, including parents, politicians, media and immigrants. Our society is rotting.

Thank you #4; I hate having to comb through the entire article to find no explanation.

In general, current populations are ridiculously over-medicated. Even for trivial issues. It would not surprise me if this overuse of pharmaceuticals of all types is in fact the cause of the general lack of rationality in our leaders regardless of political party.

It's not only the push to get every young boy on ADHA med, but also the constant drumbeat from kinder garden through college that boys are the problem in society. That somehow boys have it made and only girls need special help and in need of protected hiring practices and laws. Tucker brought this up stating that many young men feel they will never do as well as their parents and feel left out of society. So, these young men seek escape in video games. Bashing one sex to advance another is never going to result in a stable society.

There is a reason that nine out of ten TV ads are for drugs, many of them brand new. The sheeple have been convinced that the answer to all of their problem comes in a pill bottle. Judging from the side effects allowed in the COVID poison, these pharmaceuticals are doing more harm than good. The profit margin on drugs is astronomical.

FTA: 'Despite this clear fraud, all of it was ignored by the drug regulators.' It appears that the drug regulators are like toll booth attendants...they will let you pass; but only after you have paid the 'toll'. Apologies for the comparison to actual toll collectors.

Let us not forget the huge body of evidence that shows marijuana also causes psychosis.

I have always thought there is a likely possibility that drugs had an influence on the shooters. When a shooting happens everyone questions why, but legal drugs are never mentioned.

Robert Kennedy Jr. is a fraud, and anyone who values his fraud is also a fraud.
That said, the alternatives to SSRIs also have negative side effects. Tricyclics (so named for the three benzene rings in the molecule) also cause akathisia and other side effects noted for SSRIs. The reason SSRIs are chosen is because they have less of these side effects than tricyclics.
MAOIs (monoamine oxidase inhibitors, which increase the levels of monoamine neurotransmitters - dopamine, serotonin, etc. - by inhibiting the oxidase that suppresses them) can also have serious side effects, such as lethal hypertension when combined with hard cheeses. That's right, a MAOI and parmesan can kill.
When prescribed properly by a good doctor who follows through with regular evaluations, SSRIs are undoubtedly a vast improvement over previous treatments. But I've seen careless prescriptions - some nitwit prescribed one for my mother when she broke her wrist! She was an RN and I don't know if she ever filled that 'script. We laughed about it.

Number 16 just declared war on the WARROOM and the WARROOM posse. Is this another Iowa type supporting SSRIs? Stay tuned.

SSRI’s are almost all cheap and generic. There is no money in it. People that need them are helped. Patients with other psychiatric problems also have depression and often take SSRIs. There is no causal relation between SSRIs and mass murder. It is not responsible to say so and is not scientific.

More nonsense - - from people for whom I normally have respect.
Tucker and Laura have no understanding of mental illness. Schizophrenia is not "caused" by anything. It's in the human genes - - and erupts naturally - - usually in young men aged 16 to 25.
It's foolish to comment on anything - - when you're ignorant about it. Tucker and Laura should get an education about mental illnesses - - before they open their yaps any further - - and continue to make fools of themselves.

Seriously doubt big pharma understands the garbage they are peddling. They just see green, and its good enough for them. Products have been withdrawn for far less. Ultimately, it's up to the people to decide what they put in their bodies. Sadly, they have become far too trusting.

#1, 10 and 18: I had always wondered why were are inundated with these pharma ads when, supposedly, the products are not for the general market. They are, supposedly, given to people who have undergone medical testing, been diagnosed with a specific medical problem, which is treated with medication available only by prescription.
It has always seemed to me to be a waste of money to advertise a product that is not obtained by the desire of the consumer, but by a specific and, supposedly, tested and valid medical reason that has nothing to do with watching the advertisements.
This article explains it, the commercials are a kind of money-laundering.
They allow big pharma to pump money into the media, establishing (ironically and amusingly) a dependency on big pharma's infusions, which allows big pharma to influence and control media corporate heads, and through them their news shows, which leads to influencing and controlling the politicians, right and left.
Okay, now I see the reason for the commercials. (I always thought it had something to do with the ban on cigarette commercials.)

While they are at it, they need to look at the usage of beta & calcium channel blockers - both are classes of high blood pressure meds. BOTH types are known to cause depression, suicidal thoughts & one or two of them cause homicidal ideations. It does not happen to everyone who takes these meds, but it happens enough.

These brain-bending drugs are NOT safe. Many of them warn "may cause suicidal thoughts or ideations".

The latest ads I have noticed are for TED (Thyroid Eye Disease). See them several times a day. Somebody is spending a bundle. Hardly ever heard of TED before the ads. What percentage of the population suffer from this? Don't understand why the ads are on TV at all.

americans are stuck paying for the research and development costs as well as the cost of adverts.
afaik, the socialist gov'ts around the world who benefit from the above simply cover those costs for their citizens.
trump was on about this w/ his actions to reduce pharm costs on certain medications via existing laws iirc.

1,
At one point there were only two nations on the planet that allowed direct-to-consumer pharmaceutical ads - the U.S. and New Zealand. It is an egregious offense as drugs are being marketed to consumers who lack the knowledge to make anything close to an informed decision.
The Pharmaceutical Industry is rotten. Western medicine is for the most part also rotten. We treat symptoms without giving the slightest thought as to the underlying cause. My younger son was diagnosed with Crohn's 8 years ago. We wanted to talk diet and lifestyle with the gastroenterologists and they looked at us with a straight face and said that changes in diet would not have any effect on his condition. Even stranger, they said SOME foods could make it worse but NO foods would make it better... while failing to see the logical corner they had painted themselves into on that statement.
If you can avoid drugs (unless it is something like synthroid for a non-functioning thyroid) exhaust other means first before going the chemical v. symptoms approach.
We are fearfully and wonderfully made. And nobody really knows the full story to what these unnatural foreign substances do.

Contemporary pharmaceutical disclaimers list "possible side effects", which is simply the list of symptoms seen in people who took the drugs, after they took the drugs. It doesn't imply that the drugs caused those symptoms, merely that they were seen after use. Many of the "side effects" were what the patient had before using the drug, and the drug just didn't fix them.
Which is why I'm skeptical about the hysterical declarations that particular drugs cause people to BECOME psychotic or suicidal.

We've known since Columbine that there is a link between SSRIs and mass shootings. The power of the pharma industry to keep this under cover is mind-boggling. Only with the even more massive fraud of the covid vaxes have many people begun to realize the harm they've done, and now perhaps it will become possible to expose much more about them.
