Isn't that what we are talking about?

You don't find a difference between what we consider a mental health issue (which absofrickenlutely has a lot of news alerts) and people actively recruiting and brainwashing people to commit murder? You counter schizophrenia with medication, and maybe you can terrorism by going after the propagandists.
I can't tell if I am being trolled.
