n the 1980s, around the time of the massive deinstitutionalization of the mentally ill, I was working toward my degree in clinical psychology by training at a psychiatric hospital in Washington, D.C. One sweet, diminutive, elderly patient sometimes wandered the halls. She had been committed to the hospital after she stabbed someone in a supermarket. She was what is sometimes referred to as a revolving-door patient: She was schizophrenic and heard frightening voices in her head, and when she became psychotic enough, she would be hospitalized, stabilized on medication, and then released back to the community. There she would soon go off her medication, become psychotic, be rehospitalized, stabilized again on medication, released, etc.
Violence Is Not a Product of Mental Illness. Violence Is a Product of Anger.

This is an informative anger would do this over mental illness, but there is a huge play in prescribed drugs that are also to blame since almost all of these mass shooters are on prescribed drugs.
But add drugs to the anger and we have the perfect ingredients for a mass shooter...............
