Btw, I wasn't just a student. Unlike you I spent 15 years actually working in the health care field, including much time spent working the phych wards. Newsflash-- not everyone with mental problems are cluelessly unaware of their actions. A lot of faking goes on. Someone can have some low level aberrant thought processes and still be aware enough to run game on everyone, and then fall back on the insanity defense.

All I know is once this guy is deemed fit he'll be free to integrate himself back into society. I'd love to send him your way and have him move in and be your next door neighbor over in the peaceful EU.



One last thing DV --- I'm not sure how "the gun-filled USA" got involved in your rantings, this incident happened in Canada. But on that note I should point out that there are those out there with the opinion that had someone on the bus that day been armed there would have been a better chance of saving the kid. Of course the anti-gun people all have a pile of choice arguments about that as well, as I'm sure you do.
