Yeah, I totally understand the mental illness issue. I have CPTSD and the times I was scared that I might do something to myself, not because I wanted to die, just because of wanting to self harm, and I am so glad that I never did. I had the means around me to prevent me, but not everyone has a loving family or a safe zone (emotional safe zone) and they can fall down very far with no one to help them. It can be a very dark place. When we are well surrounded, it's still very difficult, but at least we have something that allows us to stay grounded and not lose our minds to weird thoughts and ideas. Instead I took that energy and turned it into something creative. Imagine if that was the way and instead of shooting guns, you turned that mass murderer into something creative and their thoughts and energy changed instantly and then they did not want to hurt others, they just wanted to create instead of destroy. Sadly, there are more psychopaths out there than we know.

I think the term psychopath is not quit fitting ... Look people have bad days , some people just snap. But other have long detailed issues. and here we see more stories where the are allowed guns and ammo no problem as much as they want .. her let's just throw in some c-4. ... j/k but at some point well all have to come to the realization what is or isn't being done by the N.R.A. by congress, by an administration etc. needs to be addressed and changed. There are as many mental issues as there are people. So we have to start making help available and stop de-funding. Then today Trump signed a bill allowing mentally ill people to not be restricted from buying guns. Elderly , Dementia and Alzheimer patients etc. I mean really today he signs it ? while everyone is distracted ... he makes me sick. He is not helping.
No, it doesn't help for sure.
The reason I say psychopath is due to my personal experience with such people. It's true that psychopaths are not psychotic, they will not be overtly in frenzies all the time. They are cold and calculated. They are unafraid to break the law and it's true, they will more likely kill behind the scenes in a more covert fashion. Though there are psychopaths who kill outwardly and overtly to send a message out.
this is very true sadly but we are dealing with so many different issues here not a 1 dimensional problem and a 1 dimensional answer will not solve it
