Prescription drugs.
Nearly.
The abuse of prescription and/or illegal drugs.
The abuse part is the important bit.
Legally prescribed and correctly applied pharmaceutical compounds kill 100k/year in the US alone. Trusting Dr.s and Pharma is the abuse.

Agreed...the over prescription of pharma drugs by doctors for backhanders or cushy and prominent positions is a scandal, you're right...it's a total abuse.

Watched a yt video earlier, it involved James Eagan Holmes.
It has been suggested he is not of our timeline.
Have a look at this guys history and specifically what he was researching.
Can you provide a link to that video? I would be interested in seeing it.

Eh? They save tens of millions of lives per year. While no drug is safe, blanket fear-mongering is far worse.
This is a uniquely US thing, trying to pin it on a universal issue or single issue such as prescribed drugs is likely to be as accurate as the clearly false 'all serial killers have the same hair' claims.
First off, the article did not claim ALL serial killers have the same hair. It did point out the one exception, while most of the last mass killers had the similar 'bowl cut', intimating the hairstyle COULD BE a sign of a mental anti-social disorder. It clearly stated not all those with bowl cuts are killers, but most of the mass shooters had similar haircuts. Second, prescription drugs don't SAVE tens of millions of lives a year, they just treat for the short term. I guess you equate facts as 'fear-mongering'.

That's not entirely true.
They just call it mood changes.
I know. It's pretty standard for them to warn you about it whenever they put you on any kind of brain affecting medication. I'm on an anti-seizure, and my neurologist warned me to make sure my husband knew that the medication in question could make me a "royal b****" were his words pretty close to exactly, and to be on guard against that so we could switch away if it happened.
If that doesn't indicate a possible anger issue side effect, I don't know what does.

Insulin saves tens of millions of lives every year.
That's just one drug.
I guess you equate fear-mongering as "facts".

Artificially produced pharmaceutical insulin treats, and in the process temporarily saves, not cures, millions of lives each year. A safer, vastly cheaper, natural cure is cinnamon. Of course, big pharma doesn't tell you about that, they can't make billions from a penny plant.

As I said the world isn't the US - take Harold Shipman or Anders Brevik for instance, neither had thousand yard stares or bowl cuts.
No, just as facts - not all drugs are short term and the ones that are, like general anesthetics, are often vital for life saving operations or day to day living.
And the article was talking about psychiatric drugs, not ALL drugs.
.............and the article wasn't talking about the rest of the world, as it was only referring to violence in America.
"Conservative media is presently doing a fantastic job on this issue, detailing why the mass psychiatric drugging of young white men is leading to so many outbreaks of violence in America."
How does one relieve that pressure, though?

If you look at many of this kids pictures, they look staged. As if he is acting a part, he looks angry, grrr. Stand by the staute and flex your muscles, hold flag, grrr. Then he begins to do more than role play,he begins to live and breathe his part, just as actors sometimes do.
I think that is how it starts with many of these killers. Little by little they imitate those before them, which is where the hair comes in. Then little by little they begin to lose their humanity, which I believe explains the vacant eyes that most of these killers have.
These people plan these situations out methodically. I looked the kid up and found that in his early years he had the bowl cut but as a teen he had it in many different styles, longer hippy hair at one point. So I think that what it comes down to is that in their weird twisted logic...imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. They decided to take on the role of psycho-killers and one has to look the part before they can play it.
It is always sad all around when anyone allows hate to consume them.

So it saves lives then?
You said they didn't then you said they do.
Which is it?
Would you care to share how cinnamon cures diabetes?
And how long has this been known about as I'm sure the millions of people who died as a result of starvation diets before insulin was available would have liked to have known this.
I'm sure my 81 year-old insulin dependant Dad would like to know too.
Your last sentence is straight from conspiracy 101.
Where do you think pharma derive drugs from?
Digoxin, aspirin, opiates etc etc etc? All from plants.
If there was something in cinnamon which cured diabetes it could be extracted and sold couldn't it?
You've not put much thought into this have you?
