So why do people commit crimes, particularly murdering a 51 year old black mother and leader in her community?
Because they are fukking roaches. Plenty of folks have mental problems. Tens of millions. Are they ordering Ubers with the intent to kill whoever picks them up? Some folks are just pieces of shyt

But the likelihood is , it wasn't. More times than not if he carried out this kind of act, we will find out that he had a history of mental health issues that were never remedied and went unchecked probably since he was a kid. Raising awareness to mental health will never stop crazy acts of violence all together, but you create an environment where you can lessen the acts and the probability raises in the positive that you can prevent these acts. But having nothing done leaves things like this unchecked and the results are what we experience a society of people that need more help but is failing to properly remedy it and a social media who ignores it until something crazy like this happens and we all shake our heads. Sure there are small examples of people coming from good homes , good schools, wealth etc and still acting crazy but you don't measure by judging the aberrations and outliers, you seek out the most likely scenarios and all studies will determine that folks who act out crazy like this come from the same similar dysfunctional backgrounds that went unchecked with no resolutions outside of maybe a small dose of counciling from a school aid or something.
Understand. I appreciate this perspective, especially after watching Million Dollars Worth of Game podcast (co-host spent 20 yrs in prison and came out as a motivational speaker)

The issue is more complex than a simply “mental health” or “death penalty”

May god rest her soul

we need to stop slapping “mentally unstable” on every piece of shyt who commits a crime
Disagree and pointing out they might be loony isn't downplaying the seriousness of what they did nor should they get out of punishment.

Downplaying issues of the mind is kinda why we have so many lunatics on the streets now. Especially in Louisiana where they love to shut down mental institutions.

I admit it comes across as a copout but trust me it's not.

The one or two times I rode Uber I always sat behind the passenger seat. That should be mandatory

I ride uber all the time, just like taxi's, always sit behind the passenger seat, just for the sake of keeping everything safe. Though I've said it countless times before, if you're gonna be an uber driver, have the plastic shield installed. $90-100 for protection against morons/psychopaths I'll take, any day of the week.

Death penalty. fukk him.

Hes too much of a bytch he couldn't kill himself so probably planned to go out that way. Keep him alive so the rest of his life can be a living hell courtesy of people just like him.

And when he eventually dies. I hope there's another Hell that waits for him.
