Reply #127: You obviously have no experience with mental illness. [View All]

Or severe post-partum depression or psychosis or you wouldn't be spouting this crap.

Someone with mental illness often DOES NOT REALIZE THEY ARE EVEN ILL OR THAT WHAT THEY ARE THINKING IS NOT REALITY.

How on earth can they be held responsible for their actions while ill, how can they discern what their own actions even ARE, when they can't even discern whether they are ill or not?

Lock them up, protect others from their illness, get them intense treatment, whatever, but putting someone to death because of their actions while severely mentally ill is just barbaric.

We don't even know if this woman was mentally ill, and if she's not I hope she rots in jail, and hell. I'll wait until more facts come out first.
