Can the massacres that occur in everyday America be discarded as individual, or is it a social problem?

Crazy people are found in every country, but only those in the USA and a few other countries have access to automatic weapons.

I think that America lives in a culture where guns and violence is played with a little too much, but to do something like that is an individual problem. I mean of all the Americans who play violent video games and watch violent TV shows, how many of them shoot up schools? Hardly any. To do this you have to be plain evil and twisted. When I fired my first gun it completely showed me how dangerous they are. To solve problems like this people can't be plain ignorant and think banning guns is an answer, but people also can't think that life is GTA and you can just shoot people.

It is of course both.
Almost all the shooting by youngsters have been by by those who were or are on Prozac or a derivative which has been hushed up by the media because it interferes with gun control agenda. When students and young people get off that drug sometimes bad things happen and no one is investigating the after or side effects of those drugs. As they knew the Gifford in Tucson was a young man on medication. Go down the list of shootings and three things that are most similar and general in their profile(s).
1) Most were on medication or quit their medication
2) All leaned towards the left politically.
3) They did not respect authority.
I do not have any information on the last shooter. However I would investigate the above.
I have noticed the media will no longer say or tell us if the killers were on Prozac type drug. The ywill say he was seeing a Dr or he was on meds ect.
Not everyone taking Prozac drugs go kill people but those who have quit taking the drug have killed people.
