This is regarding the way that some people we see handle the word (and reputation) of mental illness. Each and every time a bad thing occurs in the world the media will directly blame the tragedy on the mental illness. Even though this can sometimes be the case that they may actually suffer or have suffered from some kind of mental illness, the media does not take time to consider the population of people actually suffering from mental illness; that population who truly has an honest conscience about violence. Personally, this is one of the reasons that when bad things happen I do not feel sorry for either party in most cases. I believe the media is responsible for the way people act in this world. Us as sufferers of mental illness, should never have to feel condemned when problems arise. That is and always should be on the individual who committed the acts.

I am open to comments and thoughts about what you think when mental illness is used as the reason for tragedys.
