Not All Killers
A paranoid schizophrenic murderer escaped from a psychiatric hospital near me lately and there is more stigma now surrounding schizophrenics. They are not all killers. There is a stigma attached to schizophrenics and this latest news just adds to the stigma. Some schizophrenics are murderers, so are some postmen or nurses. Anyone can be a murderer. Those who are mentally ill have more risk of BEING hurt by others than hurting OTHERS.
