It is always interesting how when a young white man shoots up a school or movie theater or church that's always the narrative. He was "troubled" or a "loner."

I wonder how many people blamed mental health when the Boston bombing suspects were found.

Hell, Mike Brown was shot and killed by a police officer after an altercation with a store clerk, and he wasn't given the kind of free pass of "mental health" that is given to a guy who, in cold blood, gunned down 9 people in a church.

Funny how people can justify police overreacting to black citizens/suspects, and how they immediately call a brown person a terrorist, and yet then they'll let off a white shooter with the "mental health" clause.
