Why isn't it both a gun and mental health care issue?
It's both, and complicated.
The writer is interesting in that he states that psychiatry programs curtail their programs' training in therapy, which goes along with the quick med check model, and he also seems to say that psychiatrists are always better suited than social workers to treat patients. In the medication realm that is of course the truth, but we know its more complicated than that. I agree with a lot of what is stated, but really disagree with a lot of it. And....this is from Fox News after all, which leans conservative (which tends to be pro gun)
I think these shooters tend to have contact with mental health professionals, but they're not the ones seeking it out.
On the other hand, you have different fingers.
