Yes, mental health issues (and there's a fair bit behind that - in that, for years (decades?) the resources and facilities for providing appropriate support and care for those with mental illnesses has been stripped down to far less than what is required. - I'm not that interested in calling the perpetrator a coward or a bed wetter. The world is a crap place, between that, personal trauma, and the genetic lottery - some of us break. The violence, horrific as it was, was not done (as far as anyone can tell) for profit or ideology.
More or less exactly as everyone assumes from the get go -...- I'm not that interested in calling the perpetrator a coward or a bed wetter...
I can certainly agree to the importance of mental health, and over here that is certainly a field that should get a lot more resources. But lets be careful about blaming this on mental health alone
Cars have killed more people than any of my knives or firearms, yet our use of cars has not been curtailed because some goof drives drunk and kills someone. They aren't forcing me into a "less pointy" car or less brick-like truck.
