They are everywhere

"Approximately 1 in 5 adults in the U.S.—43.8 million, or 18.5%—experiences mental illness in a given year. Approximately 1 in 25 adults in the U.S.—9.8 million, or 4.0%—experiences a serious mental illness in a given year that substantially interferes with or limits one or more major life activities." -National Alliance on Mental Illness

This statistic doesn't include those experiencing drug related seizures and psychotic episodes. And it is a good bet that most if not all of these people can drive trucks and cars, know how to use a knife and some have guns.

Turn loose a bunch of opportunistic politicians who see an opportunity for votes in scaring people, and what they are doing is pouring gasoline on the fire and handing out matches.

The gunning down of Republicans was a hate crime and as is true of all hate killings it is not an accident. In this case, it was stoked by the hate mongers of one political party who are attempting to tell us that we are all going to die. Gee, just like the many kids gunned down in Chicago each and every year with Democratic mayors, generally Democratic governors and even a Democratic president. And what about crime in "sanctuary cities?"

But now these same opportunistic politicians would have us believe it is all because of what? A Republican president.

So how many people died in the US under the Obama administration? Was it more or less than in the past 6 months? How many in the military? I know BS when I smell it. I also am keen on identifying liars, cheats and scoundrels of all kinds.

I've figured it out. the politicians will say and do anything to get elected, The DNC even backstabbed Bernie Sanders, who immediately jumped on board when the opportunity arose and endorsed his opponent. Mental illness does take many forms. One should ask is greed is a form of mental illness?
