    He suffered from mental illness is now terror shorthand for "he wasn't Muslim" ... even if he was a fucking Nazi!http://www.nytimes.com/2016/06/18/world/europe/jo-cox-attack.html?smprod=nytcore-iphone&smid=nytcore-iphone-share …

        Both things can be true. Both things seem to be true here. Both should surely be reported.

        Should *all* persons suffering from the same diagnosis and symptoms be treated as potential murderers?

        vast swathes of humanity have diseases of all sorts - including mental illnesses - without committing murder.

        Indeed, very few people who have mental illnesses are violent. That goes without saying.

        does it? Seeking help for say, depression continues to be stigmatized.

        We could report none of this, of course. Perfectly reasonable argument. But, in such a case, both are relevant.

        Why don't we call Mateen a homicidal homophobe? That's what he was. And that's WAY more telling than which book he'd call holy.

        fundamentalists/radicals have weak minds not illness. But you're right. Not a single MI has gun rampage as a symptom.
