The U.S. Surgeon General has reported that the likelihood of violence by people with mental illness is low. In fact, "the overall contribution of mental disorders to the total level of violence in society is exceptionally small." More often, people living with mental illness are the victims of violence. Acts of violence are exceptional.So what's all the brouhaha about, and why is it right or fair?
I think it'd be a fitting unintended consequence if this law passes and then gets challenged under the Americans With Disabilities Act.
