    My inbox is full of white people defending the Las Vegas shooter. Mainly saying he was mentally ill. He wasn't.https://twitter.com/ShaunKing/status/915004800831549440 …

        And if you don't know how to speak without being insulting, maybe you should let your followers know... oh wait.

        White person here: So mentally ill that he calmly, over a period of time, bought 30+ guns, had the mind to alter them to semi auto? Sane.

        I get so angry when people say "It's a mental health issue." Usually because they normally don't give a rat's ass about mental health.

        I guarantee they didn't say anything when Congress made it easier for the mentally ill to get guns. I bet they aren't healthcare advocates.

        Because in some of their minds, mental illness is the only logical reason for a white, multimillionaire male 2 carry out such a heinous act.
