@rbreich . Sickening comparison. I must add that most of these assaults including on your house speaker spouse, all schools shooters and most if not all serial killers are victims themselves of our healthcare systems refusal to identify or treat serious mental illness aka psychosis, the left has a poorer record that the political right in that manner, as public treatment of the mentally is considered a restriction on the poor. Mental health is good for business and would end these atrocities

@Hdb60 @rbreich your claim on the right having a better history than the left on mental healthcare is completely wrong. Reagan ended federal funding for it. Dems enacted Obamacare and pay 90% of cost to states but gop fight it constantly. Gop actually fight to make it easier for mentally ill, terrorists, and violent criminals to have easier access to more lethal guns. Other countries have mentally ill people too but don’t have mass shooters bc of gun laws

@twitterreject @rbreich . Just some rabble babble for you thanks, you can’t have both guns and mental illness, by choosing to remain armed as the us does, it must now adapt with much higher mental illness detection and mitigation tools, aka pharma. From inception care for all kids. Costs then drop dramatically in social services, energy health, positive outlook improves, the need to smother yourself in comfort declines. You give more need less comfy lifestyles,

@Hdb60 @rbreich that’s the Republican policies though. They want everyone to have easy access to guns, even the mentally ill. They blame mental illness for shootings but they want to cut all funding for treatment of mental illness too. That’s what we deal with

@twitterreject @rbreich . Here’s a comment. The republicans policies have been a mixture of lurches, backward and forward since the beginning, I don’t see political parties as much as I see there are always special interest groups vying for control, Lincoln to trump. Address on gun lobby at a time, not the blob called republicans. Policy, the only policy most have is not missing a meal. Perhaps..
