      No. Rates of mental illness are not different here than in other developed countries. You can believe what you like, but the difference IS the easy access to guns. Numerous studies controlling for crime rates, mental illness, etc. converge on this conclusionhttps://twitter.com/DrBradHolland/status/967612809147232256 …

      Some here are different. There’s an angst/anger/frustration that, when coupled with mental illness, causes these things to happen here and not elsewhere. It’s not the gun access. I truly believe that.

      I’m not talking about the rate, I’m talking about the disease. And the incidence of mental illness causing a mass shooting is higher here because the disease is different (it’s not a tough sell, the psych-social angst & triggers are different here, higher fatherlessness etc.

          Replying to @DrBradHolland

          There is no evidence that the distribution or severity of mental illnesses here is anywhere near sufficiently different to explain the huge disparity in gun violence between the US and other developed countries.

          So with rifles and shotguns so prevalent throughout the last 80 years, especially in rural America, why didn’t people use the technology of the day to shoot schools in the 50s. That tech would’ve still support (less efficient) mass shooting? THEY WERE NEARLY UNHEARD OF.

          That ppl didn’t shoot each other as much in the US before compared to now isn’t relevant. Maybe if other countries had guns everywhere like we do they too would have the same problems now. We’ll never know. You’re trying to make a claim about a difference that may not even exist.

          [ [Social Media] + [XY] + [Rejection] + [Anger] + [Psychopathy] + [Access 2 Arms] + [Access 2 at-risk crowd] ] x [Desperation/Despair] = Public Health Issue = Potential 4 Mass Violence Multifactorial approach req’d This is cultural.
