The majority of violent people I know are not mentally ill.

I do know a lot of mentally ill people who were the victims of said violence though, so, HMM.

I know this is an anecdote, but uh, give me a second to expand on it...

People can become violent for any number of reasons, in any number of situations. Violence can be committed by anyone. Violence is often contextual. It does not discriminate based on mental illness.
