A heavily armed man killed himself rather than carry out an apparent plan to shoot up a mountaintop amusement park in Colorado, authorities said Monday.
why not just suicide at home? like, why get all dressed up in tac gear, then off yourself in a relatively public space? oh sure, mental illness, but… why not just stay home?
There is no “but” to mental illness; Mental illness is by-defintion doing things that don’t make sense, often the person performing the actions doesnt even understand why they are doing what they are doing (when extreme mental illness is involved). Motivations can be anything from visual hallucinations to “I dont know, I felt like a passenger while my body was doing things”.
Saying “ok, but like y tho” is misunderstanding how mental illness works.

Could have meant to kill a bunch of people and go out in a blaze of “glory” then had second thoughts and just skipped to the end.
