What a fundamental misunderstanding of entitlement and privilege. I mean, yes there's a tongue-in-cheek argument that somebody who thinks they are so owed things from other people that murder is an acceptable response to being denied those things is definitely sick.

But the idea that "Nobody in their right mind could do this" basically lets people off the hook by letting them hide behind an illness that doesn't exist. And lets people with financial and political interests in the status quo avoid having to acknowledge their responsibility.

Every country has mental health problems. The rest of them don't have mass killing problems.
