Yes it is a sign of mental illness. People feel that this is the only way out. The same in all countries and religions. Do you not think abortion is the same, a life is a life?

Tyler what would you do if you were in the same situation as some of these people? Would you react differently? I do not condone violence in such manners but I also know that any human being is capable of such acts if they are put in certain situations. The conditions including mental illness, poverty, and etc help to define how a person will react in situations regardless of who condones or sanctions it.

Act your age not your shoe size
