RFK in Texas:
"I certainly consider mass shootings a health crisis," the secretary said. "And we are doing, for the first time, real studies to find out what the ideology of that is. And we're looking for the first time at psychiatric drugs."I’m sure there will be several years of double-blind studies, all carefully reviewed, before conclusions are reached.
"You know, these kinds of mass shootings, people have had guns in this country forever," he continued. "When I was a kid, we had shooting clubs at our school. People, kids, my classmates, other people would bring a .22 rifle with their guns to school and park it in the parking lot."
Kennedy insisted that there had "never been a time in America in the history of humanity" when people "just started randomly shooting."
"It's happening in our country," he pointed out. "It's not happening around the world."
"Something changed, and it dramatically changed human behavior," Kennedy remarked. "And one of the culprits we need to examine is whether the fact that we are the most over-medicated nation in the world. And a lot of those are psychiatric drugs that have black box warnings on them that warn of suicidal and homicidal ideation."
"So we are doing those studies right now for the first time, and we will have an answer."
Or Kennedy will announce something over the weekend, having reached a conclusion sometime long before he was even on Trump’s radar.
