Alright. What about the suicides then? Society bear any fault for pushing people with mental issues over the edge when we know full well that will be the result?
Or can society just do whatever it pleases to people and if that happens to cause havoc, we shrug and say “not our fault”?
My cousin killed himself with 200 tylenol after years of drugging and petty crime. Left a suicide note.
