11 months agoI mean i generally agree with your point and i know its a small detail but it kinda rubs me the wrong way when people always bring up mental health when talking about mass shootings. There isn’t much of a link between mental illness and violence despite common belief. And i have ptsd, bipolar and psychosis which are often associated with violence but i and nearly everyone else with these illnesses just these shooters as nazi assholes. I don’t believe you had any wrong intentions or anything and i believe that healthcare is a human right, but i thought i should clarify.
Im not doubting that bullying isn’t involved (i mean its kinda a stereotype that its always the bullied quiet kids who shoot schools, but it happens) but mental illness symptoms no matter how severe don’t really cause you to plot and attempt a school shooting. I mean maybe antisocial personality disorder could cause it but i’ve never heard of such a case.
