I'm not talking about most mentally ill people, only this particular individual.
There's no way we can call his behavior and decisions reasonable or rational, I think. Makes me wonder what made him think any of it was a good idea.
Violent and antisocial, by the way, are symptoms of some mental illnesses.

People can be irrational without being mentally ill. Again, you seem determined to make excuses for this person.

Really? "That's crazy" is making excuses?
Brings me back to "guess I'm not being hateful enough for you".

No, it's because you're being hateful towards people with legitimate, diagnosed mental illness.
Armchair psychiatry diagnoses only harm and stigmatize swaths of the population.
