(11,065 posts)I was just thinking about exactly what you're saying while reading and responding to another post but at the time I wrote it I was just getting the gist of what you're saying about the comfort of being able to spot the dangerously mentally ill, and was just sitting here pondering this and coming to pretty much the same conclusion.
I'm still not getting why so many people are blaming the mother and making up all kinds of crap about her while ignoring the person who actually did the deed. I don't get that. Is it because they think that because he was mentally ill he should be getting some kind of pass or don't want to appear to degenerate the mentally ill? I just don't get that. Surely one can understand hating what someone did but not hate them because their doing the deed was because of demons in their own head. Huh. Something else to ponder.
