Well, they've tried:

brain tumor

guy 'snapped'

pills

'random killing' - didn't know it was Trump supporters he was targeting... and now it's "Deinstitutionalization"

BS

BULLSH*T

Here what it really is: the killer was a WHITE LIBERAL ELITE WHO HATED TRUMP SUPPORTERS.

HE HAD THE SAME 'DISEASE' THAT CNN HAS, THAT BLM HAS, THAT NFL OWNERS HAVE THAT HOLLYWOOD HAS - - AN EXTREME HATRED OF TRADITIONAL AMERICANS...

Carved in stone above an entrance to the DOJ in DC, “Repression Breeds Violence”

As our rulers repress us more, violence will increase until a tipping point is reached.

You've put your finger on an important driver behind the shootings issue. And it's not just deinstitutionalization. The laws have change too so that it's just about impossible to get a mentally ill person involuntarily committed.

This is also a huge driver behind the homeless problem, a high percentage of whom are mentally ill and have no interest in the services the do-gooders think will solve the problem.

Governments 11th commandment. There is no right or wrong. If it feels good, do it. You are not responsible, you are a victim.

Was this guy’s behavior certifiable before the killings?
No. Then deinstitutionalizing has no bearing on it.

That individual had no history of mental illness, said some early reports. May be right, may be wrong.

This guy was a licensed pilot, worked as a DoD contractor (clearance), and was a multi-millionaire. Given the background, medical history and level of functioning required, the only way he would have ever come under the scrutiny of “mental health professionals” is if he wanted to. The authors points are reasonable, but this guy is NOT a good case to make the point, he is the exception if anything.

Think Islam or insanity.

Yes, God has been replaced in our society with instant gratification.

I started this thread to not give some Leftist excuse for this mass murderer,

I truly believe that many people are Evil, and this murderer is Evil.

see article.
