But Gill, mental illness does cause people to do horrendous things sometimes. I don’t think mental illness is being demonised, it is a fact that some mentally ill people do commit awful crimes. It happens in the U.K. too, but usually in a much smaller way ie one victim opposed to many, but one victim is still one too many.
The real problem is the gun laws in the USA. People can acquire guns too easily and it would appear with little in the way of checks in my opinion, and probably the opinion of us all in Britain.
