[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Like 1% of criminals do 80% of crimes, and [b]mostly due to mental illness. [/b] [/quote] The kids doing the crimes in DC aren't mental ill, at least many of them are not. The guy who stabbed the dog, yes. The carjacking teens? No, mostly not. [/quote] You're thinking about mental illness much too narrowly. They're not schizophrenic like the dog stabber probably is, but years of neglectful and potentially abusive parenting leading to violence, antisocial behavior, and a lack of impulse control is indeed mental illness. It's not an excuse, it's an explanation. [/quote]
