I’m tired of people citing “mental health” issues as a way to soften any wrong doing by people who should otherwise be thought of as murderers with criminal intentions and no regard for human life. These people should be locked up and kept far away from civilized society, not sympathized.
Plenty of people with mental issues get through life without wanting to kill others off. And a lot of people who want to kill others don’t even have mental health issues, they’re just evil or apathetic.
