Quote of the Day

“As a senator, I spent a lot of my time and effort on mental health issues. There is no question that the shooter in Parkland is, like the perpetrators of all these mass killings, deeply troubled; and in this particular case, the shooter appears to have a history of mental illness. But we need to be very careful about stigmatizing mental illness in a way that is counterproductive and may ultimately prevent Americans from accessing the treatment they need.” — Al Franken, on the need for more and better mental-health treatment in America.
