Another school shooting...more children dead.

Mental illness goes beyond school shootings...the next best example is in the homeless community.  Something like 1 of 4 homeless people suffer from mental illness.  

If I look at California, Newsome's homeless combat 'plan' covers everything except mental illness.  

I know this sounds like a pivot in the conversation but I don't believe anyone anywhere is doing anything meaningful about mental illness.  

Even accepting all this is true, it's all the more reason for us to stop pretending we care about mental illness.

Even if politicians wanted to target mental illness it's going to come down to asking people to pay taxes for other people to get something, and we don't particularly like that.  Until someone can prove that mass shootings are causing the ultra rich to lose money I guess we're SOL.

I'm just being a defeatist so I'll tap out of this one.
