        Hmm.

        The US shooter is "crazy" because he attacked conservatives.

        The UK stabber that killed MP Jo Cox was an "alt-righter", even though he was a known nutter with severe mental issues.

          Did you even watch the video? The person is arguing that nobody is asking, what medication was the shooter on? He clearly suffered from mental illness, as he had sold off most of his assets prior to the shooting.

          In the video, the person gives a critic on the mental health problem plaguing America; The pharmaceutical industry, and how drugs are advertised to "make you better", but they often just end up making you worse.

            Nothing you said changes my point.

            A person known to have severe mental illnesses, was labelled as simply a conservative because he killed a liberal MP.  The liberal media complete refused to mention his mental illnesses.

            Now you want us to look for a mental illness because the shooter was a liberal, rather than simply being liberal shooter.

            Hypocrites, the lot of ya.

              Mentally ill’ or ‘terrorist’? Jo Cox assassination exposes media bias
              From RT
              June 20, 2016

              The language used by the media and government officials to describe the alleged assassin of British MP Jo Cox has been criticized for highlighting his “mental illness” and not referring to him as a “terrorist.” Thomas Mair, 52, has links to neo-Nazi and white supremacist groups and reportedly shouted “Britain First” while he stabbed, shot and reportedly dragged Cox down the street by her hair. The Sun referred to Mair by his name or used adjectives like ‘white supremacist’, ‘terrorist’, or even ‘mentally-ill loner’. These characterizations did not go far enough for some on Twitter, who asked whether there was a double standard held by the media:

              • "The singularly sensitive way that the media treats violent white men is beyond cliché at this point."

              • "Why hasn't MP Jo Cox's killer been branded as the terrorist that he is…Family Guy has the answer (as always)!"

                The BBC refers to the killer as a "terrorist".

                Here's probably the most the BBC reported on his mental health issues;
