[QUOTE="MCVetSteve, post: 3043680, member: 33591"] I’ll try to ruffle as few feathers as possible, but it really bothers me that people call the perpetrators of such things “mentally ill,” and the acts themselves “senseless acts of violence.” This man was neither senseless, given the cold and calculated manner in which he executed his plan, nor was he mentally ill. Let’s call a spade a spade, shall we? This was a calculated act of evil. These things are done by people who have developed a disdain for being itself, and so it’s not enough to simply kill themselves, they must take everyone they can manage with them. Calling such people simply “mentally ill” or a “lunatic” gives a terrible name to people who are legitimately mentally ill, the greatest majority of which would never be the perpetrator of such an act, because they’re not also evil. This is not to do with mental health so much as it is to with morality. [/QUOTE]
