    Thank you for understanding the difference.

    The former is understandable, if a bit morbid. The latter is just sick in the head.

      Well hey, maybe we’re all trying and failing to get appointments with covered therapists. If only health insurance weren’t so byzantine and inaccessible for people outside of the upper class…

        Happy he’s dead? Sure, whatever. Gallows humor has it’s place, and that’s one thing.

        Cheering the killer, frothing at the mouth for more, making excuses to commit murder, calling for copy cats, hoping it’s a trend, calling it a “good start”, screeching “guillotines!” or “9mm are the new guillotine”, etc are all beyond the pale and completely inexcusable.

          My point is that a lot of people in the US genuinely do need mental health care and can’t get it. Those people are one of the demographics of people for whom this is the biggest victory. So mentally ill people, poor people, and people with long-term illnesses are more likely to be cheering rn
