Thanks for the clarification, DE. I didn't think Bi-polars hallucinate and like I said, I have NO CLUE what caused this woman to say what she did, much less what caused this guy to go off like he did. Exactly because I have never claimed to know much about any other mental illness other than anxiety and depression is why I said "or whatever it was he was doing." IF he was acting out of anger or WHATEVER, I can't imagine doing something like that just because!
Like I said, I meant NO OFFENSE to anyone with my ignorance! And I certainly didn't expect for any one to accuse me of assuming or stereotyping. I would have hoped that some of the older members here would know me better than that!! Some of my own family members judge me as "crazy" because I live with anxiety and depression.
You know, if anyone had asked my opinion, I would have been really quick to say that the police prefer to shoot first and ask questions later! I find this to be true in almost every story that involves the police! So to aliviate your suspicions, I DID NOT JUDGE OR STEREOTYPE the man that got killed OR anyone else with bi-polar disorder!
