You’ve just argued with a straight face that if you feed a drug to a large enough population that it somehow makes a known side effect / association with homicidal ideation “not significant,” simply because only a small number of patients actually follow through.

Also, keep in mind that with regard to school shootings, we’re talking about a phenomenon that doesn’t actually have seemed to exist prior to the invention and widespread use of the drugs themselves. I don’t think one can simply wave that away as statistical insignificance.

You’re trying to force a correlation.
