And we have these militia members who were going to kidnap the governor of Michigan... are they mentally ill? What does it even mean? They probably aren't on any medication, but they're more dangerous than most.

Very good science communication on this one, Leon. I'm working on a research thesis regarding the stigma of mental illness and how it influences incarceration and post-incarceration conditioned institutionalization, and although I'm in the very early part of it (mostly lit review right now), popular culture is a general theme of influencing the behavior of authorities towards mental illness. Anyway, just want to mention that I highly appreciate your focus on this topic as a clin psych grad PhD student.
