BUT its generally reported as 'mentally ill person commits act of violence' rather than how Islamic terrorism is. I hate that, how when its a white person its 'just' mental illness. Noone rushes to say Jihadis are mentally ill...

Also, things tend to only make the news when an attack is successful. I actually can't remember the last time it was a 'mentally ill white man'. I think possibly the attack on the Mosque, that was generally framed as retaliation to violence rather than terorrism. Which is what it is, just with different victims.
