I hadn’t heard this despicable statement by #RFKJr before today:
Sen #TinaSmith, D-MN, spoke about her own battle with illness in questioning Kennedy on his views about #antidepressants. She pointed to misinformation he has spread & said his statements added to the #stigma around #MentalIllness. Kennedy said in the past, without evidence, that the majority of school shooters take antidepressants, suggesting that the medications are a cause of #SchoolShootings.
