There's probably a cerain correlation, but blaming anti-depressants is rather similar to confusing cause and effect.
It's easy to see why there is a certain correlation:
A person who does a mass shooting is automatically suicidal. They know from other mass shootings before that the shooter hardly ever survives; when you go on a killing spree, you've accepted that there's a high chance you won't be seeing tomorrow - you're probably consciously or unconsciously even seeking that fate.
So it's no wonder many of these people had been talking antidepressants. To make a mass shooting, you must be suicidal. To be suicidal, you must be depressed. And when you're depressed, there's a good chance you're taking antidepressants. Especially in the US, where antidepressants are so common. As far as I know, the US consumes half of all the world's antidepressants.
