No, bringing back mental institutions won’t stop mass shootings. Via FiveThirtyEight:
I have a mental health problem. A couple of them, actually. Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is the big one. I was diagnosed at 26 and take medication daily for that. I also have some mild depression that comes and goes and is currently settled down on the couch with its shoes off.Nearly 47 million American adults — about 19 percent of us — deal with a mental illness of some sort.
Take, for instance, the links between suicide and mass violence. Last week, I wrote a story about researchers’ findings that. None of this research compared perpetrators of mass violence to the general population, which is just the first of many reasons that the presence or absence of suicidal thoughts is not a great way to predict who will become dangerous.
