I never said this guy has mental illness and THAT’s why he did it. In fact I never even mentioned mental illness at all. I personally hate that term and never use it myself because it implies something is wrong with people who are having negative feelings or intrusive ideation.
The systemic issues in this country are vast and depressing and they def need to be solved. I’m not in anyway trying to dismiss them.
We can’t solve these issues if everyone is approaching them from angry defensive or defeated positions.
Getting everyone access to comprehensive mental health I would argue is the FIRST step at solving the systemic issues in the world because it will help people learn appropriate and valuable ways to cope with negative feelings.
My comment hit a sore spot with you but you just getting cart Blanche angry at me isn’t helping us have a reasonable conversation about how we get people the tools needed to cope with the systemic issues you mention here.
