4. To be clear, I'm not saying all of these people are mentally ill.

I'm saying some of them are more vulnerable to radicalisation because they have an untreated mental illness.

A lot of them are just assholes.

But we can potentially do something about the ones who have a mental illness.

I have family members with schizophrenia and in my experience it is not easy to get good quality consistent and long-term help for people with serious mental health issues and limited financial resources.
