Have you ever thought about killing people?

[Temprano26]

We talk about this a lot on these forums, how the USA breeds mental illness and that most serial killers come from the USA. Well, is that really true? Can you find me some stats on that? I am sure Japan has their serial killers too, right?

Giving you guys the benefit of the doubt, I'll just assume none of us would ever walk into a public place and start blasting everyone with an AK-47. But be honest, have you ever thought about it, particularly after several months of depression? I have been in Arlington, TX two years straight now without a break. It used to be I could deal with depression through working out, writing, painting, going out. Now I find life is more meaningless with each passing day. I used to love other people and now I am tired of fake smiles everywhere I go. This is especially true in the car dealing with traffic every day. An image flashed through my head of mowing down everyone I saw. That is not me thinking that as much as how sick I am feeling of everything around me. I was just trying to go get a massage to do something for me but couldn't do that because there were too many damn cars and I couldn't stop turning around. It is days such as yesterday that make me doubt how long I can maintain my sanity. Arlington has truly turned me into a worse human being than I really am.

Can't you just sell everything you've got and start travelling? The likelihood of finding people you like should increase dramatically when your playground goes from Arlington, TX to the whole wide world.

If the traffic or commute is driving you nuts, it's your responsibility to:
1. Look for alternative transportation (train, van pool)
2. Move closer to work
3. Find employment closer to home
4. Move out of the City
5. Move out of the State
6. Move out of the Country

Look, everyone else is stuck in traffic with you. Even if you go on a shooting spree, it'd be news for 15 mins, and next day the traffic jam will continue.

If you want to do something meaningful and long-lasting, you need to take action to remedy the issue for yourself.

Of course we are trying to move out of the state, country. We are all just frustrated that we can't right now due to money or whatever.

This is why we rant and rave on the internet. Our madness is to be vented not put into practice.

[Temprano26]

We are all frustrated because America has little public transit and everyone is trapped in cars. The driving culture has created a stressful lifestyle.

Never understood the idea that harming lots of random people would solve personal problems.

I am talking about how people increasingly become crazy over time. Look at the news.

I would not advise running amok, but if you do could you at least do it in an intelligent way like Brievik?

[Gadfly]

Nope. Don't do it man.

People, you are missing the point here. I am not going to go psychotic. I am just saying that over time, we become psychotic like that kid in Santa Barbara. Mental health deteriorates in America as Winston has pointed out several times.

[traveller]

Unfortunately, the only things those massacres have resulted in is more freedoms taken away, another shove towards a nationwide police state, and in many cases, even worse bitter hatred between people. In a way, it sort of reminds me of the evil Egyptian Pharaoh in the time of Moses. Plagues of frogs, lice, locusts, bloody water, fiery hail storms, and even darkness didn't budge the evil pharaoh's heart a milimeter.

Here are two fictional movies you might enjoy watching.

This society breeds mental illness, it can infect any one of us. Yes, I've thought about just shooting up someone too, not everyone like a mass shooter, but just any dumb ass American who wants to start shit with me for no reason. It does play on a person's nerves over a long time. . .
