Original Note:
The link in the tweet is 23 years old. “Previous Violence Is The Only Evidence-Based Predictor Of Future Violence.” Untreated depression is linked to suicide; there is no factual link to murder. The claim is also a logical fallacy. https://www.rand.org/research/gun-policy/analysis/essays/mental-illness-risk-factor-for-gun-violence.html https://www.mhanational.org/gun-deaths-violence-and-mental-health https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/general_writing/academic_writing/logic_in_argumentative_writing/fallacies.html https://time.com/5645747/gun-violence-mental-illness/
