Yahoo! engineer in murder-suicide riddle
Six dead and one critical after Santa Clara massacre
Customer Success Testimonial: Recovery is Everything
A father suspected of murdering five members of his family before killing himself has been identified as a Yahoo! engineer.
Devan Kalathat, 42, an analytics engineer at Yahoo! since 2004, shot dead his 11-year-old son, his four-year-old daughter, his brother-in-law, sister-in-law, and their 11-month-old niece during a massacre at his Santa Clara home before turning the gun on himself, police allege. Kalathat's wife was the sole survivor of Sunday's bloodbath, during which she suffered multiple gunshot wounds that have left her in critical condition.
Kalathat was named yesterday as the suspected killer. Police are yet to suggest a motive for the attack, though fear of redundancy or other financial motives has reportedly been ruled out. Detectives are reportedly working on the theory that a family dispute sparked of the tragedy.
Ashok Poothemkandi, Kalathat's brother-in-law, only arrived in the US from India with his family two weeks ago having secured a year's contract with HP.
Pictures of the victims along with more background on the tragedy can be found in an AP story here. ®

Prozac
SSRIs, Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors. This family of drugs contains the flurine molecule, the same one in Sarin and VX nerve gas, the same one the Nazis put in the water in the Jewish parts of town.
This is the drug given to depressed people before they go on a shooting rampage. How could someone be so unfeeling as to shoot their own children? Well numbing your feelings is the whole purpose of prozac. Read the datasheet that comes in a box of SSRI pills and you will see suicide is one of the side effects along with sleeplessness.
Now who do we know went on a shooting rampage in the early hours of the morning?
Betcha it was the Pills
-it's time to admit Big harma, sorry, Big Pharma is in it for the bucks& not in the business of curing
1 - 1,100,000 for antidepressants+suicide
1 - 44,600 for antidepressants+homicide

It is *not* the gun laws
America and Canada have very similar gun laws, they also have a similar level of gun ownership, the gun laws probably make no difference in this case, the guy had psycological issues and did things that nobody in their right mind would do.
The general problem in america and the reason why there is a disproportionate level of gun related murders is americans and their fear culture, not the gun laws, there is also a disproportionate level of afro-american people in prison, povety line families, creationists and media hype, it is an awful place.
btw. The UK does not have a problem with knives, it's media fear culture, and it will get worse.
