The Shooter was Anti Semitic, Anti Gay, Racist,Misogynist so why so much Talk of Mental Health ?

[JI7]

if the shooter had been muslim we would not be talking about mental health. we would be talking about banning people.

another thing the shooter had in common with some other recent violent thugs was his anger at seeing white women in interracial relationships.

the guy was just a loser all around .

and most gun nuts are similar to his type.

2. He was not brown

or black..

3. I'd be talking about mental health in the absence of a shooting

The shooting only serves to underscore the need for a serious, nation wide discussion of mental health and implementation of legislation to provide better access to better mental health professionals. We also need to discuss how to remove the stigma of mental health issues.

Yeah, I know what your point is.

4. i agree, mental health is an issue that needs to be discussed in itself. and also most people with

the illness are VICTIMS of crimes .

5. Hey, according to the fascist right that makes him a real Murican unlike all us liberals....

his gun idolatry is the cherry on top for them.

6. it absolves the guns.

7. I always wonder with these types of people. Is being angry and hateful a

mental illness? I don't think so. I think perfectly sane people can be driven to extremes by anger and hatred. It's no excuse.

8. Because not a Muslim, or an immigrant...the Base can not be riled up by white supremists being

attacked...they are one and the same.
