Exactly. The notion that the huge number of gun violence in America is a cause of mental illness is such nonsense and further stigmatizes those with mental illnesses who wake up everyday and contribute to society
We should really ask every other country on earth how they all eliminated mental illness, since that's the source of all gun massacres.
