Are you mad?
An 81-year-old lady had her throat slit with a knife yesterday morning in Cresta Shopping Mall by a mentally disturbed woman.
Today's news heading:
Mall murder suspect 'not violent'
No track record or indication of any violence in this lady, until now. She was assessed by a team of specialists and released into the custody of her family. Then she ran away, slit an old lady's throat and walked away.
Firstly: How stupid are these news-writers to say something as absurd as this? I say very. Not violent? She slit someone's throat you crazy bastards! You could've headered it as "Crazy bitch that slits throats wasn't violent until now" or "Bottled up anger forces loony-bin lady into a throat-slitting frenzy" or something creative like that.
Secondly: Either this chick had a plan, or these specialists are really special... They must be kicking themselves for releasing this sideshow back into the community.

Your recent seeming addiction to italics is making me wonder a little about your mental state.
So wondering right now.
