People need to stop jumping to the conclusion these killers are mentally ill. Mental illness is a disease state that indicates people are experiencing a pathology that mitigates the behavior.

Some of these killers are just bad people and are fully responsible for their acts.

Non partisan pew research stated that 63% of liberals admitted they suffer from mental health issues. That's not even counting the undiagnosed. These are mentally unstable people.

You want to fix it. You can start with ice, federal employees being attacked by the left. Give them the go ahead to use deadly force against the attackers, antifa. Pass laws to speed up appeals process so the govt can execute them fast. Make it public executions. Congress Pass a law stating that if you fear for your life, you can use a gun to defend yourself and end the threat. 2nd amendment right but if you are in a liberal state, some do not allow you to carry your weapon on your person anywhere. (New York city) federal govt doj needs to start looking into sanctuary cities and places with soros Da's and judges and start filing federal charges against these violent criminals they are releasing onto the streets.

Pass a law just like with bartenders, you let go a violent criminal onto the streets and he kills someone, the da and the judge will be charged with accessory to murder

At a minimum, we need to make a serious, concerted effort to return to a Christian country.


Not by force, of course. But certainly by persuasion. Is time for a massive emergence of proselytizers to spread the good news. Turning our backs on Christianity is the worst mistake this country has made.

Stope pretending they are “mentally ill”. The term has lost all meaning and is thrown out simply to absolve one from accountability. Just because you want to harm and innocent person doesn’t mean you aren’t fully aware of what you are doing and that it is wrong

Bring back insane asylums. Rabid dogs can't be fixed. It's an act of mercy to put them down. If you stand naked in front of a mirror, and can't decide if you are a male or female, you have a mental disorder.

Agreed I acknowledge mental illness but it should not be used as an excuse for committing a crime

I'd argue that anyone who can rationalize killing someone in cold blood is inherently mentally ill.

With that said, if you kill someone in cold blood, you sure as shite shouldn't be able to use "mentally ill" as a defense. You should forfeit all rights if you take someone's life.

It's literally the worst fricking thing a human can possibly do.

I agree. We have allowed the woke crowd to redefine pure evil as being mentally ill. Lock these criminals up and throw away the key.

It is very simple. Lock up the criminals and put the mentally ill in an institution.

It works every time it’s tried.

That's a sociopath or psychopath. Like mobsters and gang members...and assassins. They kill for a reason and are not necessarily mentally ill.

But, I understand what you are saying.

Not to get to in the weeds, but a psychopath is a textbook case of mental illness.

"mind" is literally the root of the word.

- Ban all forms of social media for one.
- Swift capital punishment that’s like for like. You stab and kill someone, that’s how you die

It's not. It's a personality disorder, antisocial. If you label psychopaths as mentally ill you then have to consider mobsters and gang bangers mentally ill. That's a line you dont want crossed in the legal system.

quote:

Definition and Traits: Psychopathy is a personality disorder linked to antisocial personality disorder (ASPD) and is characterized by traits such as lack of empathy, superficial charm, and impulsivity.
Diagnostic Alignment: While psychopathy is not classified as a standalone mental disorder in the DSM-5, it closely aligns with ASPD, which requires a pattern of disregard for societal norms and the rights of others.

first of all, we can stop calling them "mentally ill" and call them what they are, evil.

But what I'm saying is that killing someone is a mental illness, regardless of what the legal system defines it as.

If your mind is that warped to where the sanctity of life no longer holds any value, you're mentally fricked.

Mental illness is an increasing problem in this world, because it's more prevalent than people want to admit and hard to diagnose because there aren't always noticeable symptoms because everyone's inner thoughts are only ever truly known by that one person and no one else.

But again, it's always been a the slipperiest of slopes that it can be used as a shield when heinous crimes are committed.

Defend those that cannot defend themselves. Start shooting back.

Make the left own this. I’m getting more convinced we will not be able to peacefully coexist without violence.

I call this bad/evil. They can control it and know better. The mentally ill can't always distinguish reality. They act out from paranoia and other delusions in many cases.
