        You linked to a story about a man who is apparently mentally ill who shot a politician in the UK. Not Orlando. So try again.

        Tied to Brit right-wing, American neo-Nazis, SA pro-Apartheid groups. Political motivation = White terrorist.

        One can be mentally ill *and* be a neo-Nazi right-winger terrorist, or an Islamist terrorist.

        where do you think that self loathing and spousal abuse came from? Probably the book that gave him permission.

        @BenedictEvans @jerrycolonna I have several friends diagnosed as 'mentally ill.' They like pizza and Netflix, not mass homicide.

        I was wondering how long it'd take to call this one mentally ill. Long are he days when these ppl were simply criminals.

        @jerrycolonna Mental illness doesn't incite you to buy a AR-15 for killing 49 pers. That's call premeditation
