I agree about the mentally ill as a group typically being the victim.

But when it comes to some of the mass murder of random people cases. Be it Virginia Tech, the McDonald's some years back etc. Very high profile indiscriminate carnage. It's a shame that seemingly often after the fact. People can recount the warning signs. But we never seem to be able to intervene in time to prevent these tragedies. (Although perhaps by definition it's impossible to know of those cases where successful intervention took place.)
