Rue Posted December 31, 2018 Report Posted December 31, 2018 (edited) www.sane.og Above is a site that explains what I said in easy to understand terms for Eye and those of you who want to persist in misappropriating the terms psychotic and psychosis when describing violent criminals or terrorists or trying to suggest it is a diagnosis unto itself or is as Eye said based on reality. A psychosis might bend or extend reality to a new shape of belief but it's not one that would be based on reality but would be used to redefine reality, i.e. in its extreme form it's totally detached from reality which was how the word psychotic was used in the past. Today we don't use it that way, we don't use neurotic or psychotic as stand alone definitions and psychosis is seen as a variation of reality that the rest of us experience in most references. Psychosis is not something terrorists suffer from because in fact their views acknowledge the same reality, but in fact violently imposes their set of moral and political views on others as to how to control that reality. It is not about changing reality but unilaterally controlling it by and for terrorists. It's a form of extreme violent pack behaviour led by an alpha personality. We've moved on fro sticks, rocks and spears to rifles, bombs, vehicles to bash the other pack to death. Terrorists see what you and I see, but wish to control our resources including thought, in a manner they deem fit . That is the best I can do to explain it for someone like Eye who seek to white wash it to make excuses for it and reframe it as a symptom of victimhood... and to send him to rightasrain.uwmedicine.org.

My personal favourite was the person who stated the belief that all terrorists are mentally ill because why else would someone want to kill random people?

We have claims from his family and a paid shill. And the police say he was involved in 2 incidents, but don't elaborate on what those incidents were. He wasn't on any kind of watch list for either extremism or mental illness so it could have been nothing more than him beaking off too much at a cashier or store clerk and the police were called.

A lot of people sure don't sound like they know. Perhaps they believe the difference is moot from a political standpoint. What do you think? And, how, exactly, do you "know" this? Such medical information is inherently private. There were reports, mainly from family members and a few others who knew the shooter, that he had mental health challenges, but these do not constitute evidence per se of any specific medical diagnosis. Further, some of the anecdotal reports publicized following the shooting were challenged by others who knew the shooter. Being detained for observation under the Mental Health Act does not constitute proof of a diagnosis and being released rather than hospitalized following an observation period suggests that a serious diagnosis likely didn't/doesn't apply. Depression is experienced by about 20 percent of the population, so it alone can't be held to constitute an explanation for such a heinous act. And serious psychosis (i.e. other than treatable depression) is a very specific medical condition that can only be diagnosed by a qualified psychiatrist. Can you point to any reporting verifying that such a diagnosis applied? I think you need to be more careful about this. Authorities have fostered speculation on the shooter's background and motivation by withholding information from the public, which is the salient issue at stake here. Personally, I doubt that you know anything more than anybody else on here about the shooter or his intent. Edited January 3, 2019 by turningrite Quote

Shouldn't you disqualify yourself from topics in which race, ethnicity, or religion are considerations that will determine guilt or innocence? You've already made it clear that people who come to Canada as immigrants must 'integrate', but you have no idea what that means and no submissions on what you'll allow them to do or not do when they become Canadians. Is it not fair of me to think they will have to walk and talk and dress and worship (Xtian) and act like Canadians. What is this integration you want to force on people? That's not an accusation, it's a question so I can get your schtick right. Quote

Quote A police source told Global News that 29-year-old Faisal Hussain had previously been apprehended by Toronto police twice under the mental health act. It does not say what those 2 apprehensions were about. Being apprehended under the mental health act is not a diagnosis. Quote A statement released Tuesday on behalf of the Hussain family said, “Our son had severe mental health challenges, struggling with psychosis and depression his entire life. The interventions of professionals were unsuccessful.” Again, a statement from the family through a paid shill who was revealed to have ties to the Muslim Brotherhood. Also not a diagnosis. 1 Quote "There are two different types of people in the world - those who want to know and those who want to believe." ~~ Friedrich Nietzsche ~~

My claim was that the media reported about a police statement that Hussein has a history of mental illness. I guess you don't realize that a diagnosis of psychosis like schizophrenia for example, is a complicated process that can often involve a long history of interactions with both police and the health system before a definitive diagnosis can be made. Note the police reported their apprehensions of Faisal Hussein occurred under the mental health act. The history of mental illness in the case of Faisal Hussein is a fact. So is the desperateness of right wing speculation to dodge the probable implications of that- that Islamic terrorism had nothing to do with it.
