[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m not sure I buy the mentally ill excuse. Isn’t anyone who commits a horrific crime mentally ill? I don’t see how what she did is not any worse than a school shooter. She seems evil to me and I wonder if there are other disturbing details about her that will surface [/quote] Exactly, mental illness doesn’t discriminate. Why do we empathize with Lindsay Clancy because she gave birth? Why? Because she is a white, cute-ish, instagram-ready, mommy millennial. This is just wrong on so many levels. We should equally empathize with mentally unstable/ill bullied school shooters, mentally unstable, desperate fathers who murder their children, people who are raised in the hood who commit murder, etc. For some reason, we don’t say these people are mentally ill, even though they very likely are suffering from some sort of mental illness, probably lifelong mental illness that makes PPD look like a cake walk.[/quote]
