Michael Moore: In Bowling for Columbine we never really came up with the answer in terms of why this happened. I think we did a good job of exposing all the reasons that we were given were a bunch of BS. You know, Marilyn Manson caused them to do with this, this, this or that caused them to do this. And none of it really made any sense. That’s what I believe there should be an investigation, in terms of what pharmaceuticals, prescribed pharmaceuticals, these kids were on. How else to do you explain two otherwise decent kids, very smart, no history of violence to other kids in the school. Why them, why did this happen? And it demands an investigation.

Dr. Peter Breggin, M.D.:
I found a clinical study reported in the literature in which a child while taking Prozac in clinical trials developed fantasies of murdering his classmates and being murdered by them. These fantasies and nightmares became so real that the child became confused to tell what the reality was. Prozac is closely related to Luvox.

Dr. Mark Barber:
These are things that are being discussed in the back pages of journals, periodicals, textbooks and then when we see them on the news we are somehow told that these kids were bullied its because of the way they were being brought up. They didn’t have self esteem or guns are readily available. The problem with that is that we are not looking at what drove those children to pick up that gun, to decide that all of their classmates needed to be killed.

And what we are seeing is the result of the administration of psychotropic drugs to children.

David Oak, Psychiatric Survivor:
The main problem and with a psychiatric drugs is that they are pushed, people are pressured to take them, people I lied to, about the hazards.

Michael Moore:
The Eli Lilly Corp., pharmaceutical company, for nearly 15 years covered up their own internal investigation that showed that anyone on Prozac is 12 times more likely to attempt suicide than those using other antidepressants that is 12 times more than the average population. That’s 12 times more than those already on the other antidepressants this is a criminal act. And I want to know why these criminals are still walking the streets.
