Mental Health and Gun Access

ACCESS TO GUNS ISN'T THE PROBLEM, IT'S ACCESS TO MENTAL HEALTH. THE SHOOTER SHOULD HAVE BEEN ON PSYCHIATRIC MEDS. HE WAS.

A four-panel comic shows a man arguing that gun access is not the problem and that mental health is, while a doctor-like figure suggests the shooter should have been taking psychiatric medication. The doctor then reveals that the shooter was already on psychiatric medication, exposing the flawed logic of blaming mental illness for the shooting. It is used as a sarcastic reaction to simplistic arguments about gun violence and mental health.
