“Mentally ill” is a pretty broad category, and I think would encompass more than “not knowing right from wrong.”


Right. I don’t know if I’ve ever met anyone who couldn’t be shoehorned into at least one DSM category.

I've always said mass shooters and serial killers are not necessarily insane. But every time one goes off, people post that they must be insane. There is a difference between mental illness and evil.

This isnt really true. Paranoia and auditory hallucinations are risk factors for violence. They seem to rarely be mass shooters though
