We really do need more mental health services, there are far too many nuts walking around.

He was completely delusional from what I've read. Full on crazy town nuts.

It gets tied up with legal issues. Help is there, but if a mentally ill person isn't deemed a threat to themselves or others by healthcare professionals, they can't be forced into treatment. I've dealt with a family member like this and it breaks my heart because there is zero reasoning with them. Even after two involuntary psychiatric holds in a hospital, they still can't force him to get help because "he's not a danger to himself or others."

Wow. You must have stories to tell!

That explosion looked like a scene from a movie. Unbelievable.

No kidding! I'm surprised and thankful that there weren't more injuries.

Blimey!

Unfortunately nothing in the news surprises me anymore.

I am happy that you are least surprised by something in the news.
