Why Are Non_Mentally Ill People So Violent?

Postby Amerandski » Wed Jan 23, 2013 12:56 pm

Most people (including the mentally ill), are victimized by non-mentally ill people. How can we end attacks on our innocent mentally ill?

Going to give anything to go off of? Just that one statement isn't enough, could easily be knocked out.
Oh, and I'm glad you said "innocent mentally ill." Most murders in America, are, in fact, by the mentally ill. (see: Connecticut shooting, Colorado shootings, etc.)

Is this some kind of shit-OP bot?
Are these "human rights" in the room with us right now?

We probably cannot. However, punishing the perpetrators for their crimes and educating people about mental health issues could reduce the rate at which such crimes occur. Do you have any proposals? It's generally considered polite to provide your own opinion on the subject prior to asking us about our opinions.

Some mental illnesses make patients more peaceful than sane people; some illnesses, (psychopathy, sociopathy, telepathy etc) make patients more violent than sane people.

Some people are bullies. Until I see accurate research, I will assume, for conwenience, that the percentage of bullies v non-bullies is the same among both sane and insane people.

Then Evolution happens. Bullies who attack sociopaths and telepaths are all dead. The only living bullies are those who attack mad-men whose diseases make them more peaceful than sane people tlc.

I am tired of hearing about the mentally ill and violence. So now it;s your turn. Mentally ill people are being ,ade victims every day by non-mentally ill people. I suggest that Hate Crime legislation be introduced, and that we start educating the public by insisting every time a crime story of a criminal action on t.v, we note there status. In other words, we would note that there "non-mentally ill" so people would see that it is THEM not US that are commiting the crimes.

Assuming this isn't just straight-up trolling, any sort of statistics would be nice.

OP, I think I see where you're trying to go with this, but you need a better opening post.

Instead of a single sentence asking a rhetorical question, try offering your own opinion on the topic as well; in fact, it's necessary to do so with a topic in General.

So I'm not saying you can't try this topic again, but you do need that better opening post.
