    Having strong ideological beliefs on top of being desperate doesn’t mean you have mental illness by a massive margin. Most terrorists at most are depressed, not mentally ill. These are two radically different things. Just because someone is a danger to themselves and others doesn’t make them terrorists either.

      No. If you think that some group of people is superior to another group of people, and its justifiable to use violence against everyone in the inferior group, you have a mental illness.

      Thats why we have correctional facilities, so these people can be separated from society while they receive treatment for their illness.
