54 Dead and 105 Wounded in Recent Teen and School Shootings

LOS ANGELES, March 5 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- On February 14, Illinois gunman Steven Kazmierczak became the 12th shooter in the past decade under the influence of psychiatric drugs documented by international drug regulatory agencies to cause suicide, mania, psychosis, hallucinations, hostility and in the case of one antidepressant, "homicidal ideation." With casualties from school or teen shootings now totaling 54 dead and 105 wounded, the mental health watchdog Citizens Commission on Human Rights (CCHR) says it is time to stop vested interests from spouting their usual propaganda about psychiatric drugs, and instead demand a federal investigation for the sake of public safety. While the psychiatric/pharmaceutical industries have persisted in vehemently denying that antidepressants and other psychiatric drugs cause violence, CCHR is quick to point out that it was similar vested interests that stalled the FDA from issuing black box warnings on suicide for more than 13 years.

In a new 11-minute documentary (http://www.cchr.org/school_shootings/index.html) entitled Psychiatry's Prescription For Violence, psychiatrists, psychologists, professors, attorneys and medical experts join CCHR in exposing the link between psychiatric drugs and acts of violence that have been buried by those putting profit before public safety. CCHR's battle for full public disclosure on the risks of these drugs spans nearly two decades and is chronicled in a new report (http://www.cchr.org/media/pdfs/Exposing_the_Dangers_of_Antidepressants_Des'/>"/>
