Mentally Ill or a Hero?

While listening to the news on the radio this morning, the host brought up an interesting point. It was regarding the story of a man who drove through Planned Parent Hood in St. Paul yesterday; on the anniversary of Roe vs. Wade. Apparently the man believes that God told him to do it.

Normally I don't listen to Tom Bernard of KQ92, because he is fairly offensive. Still, he came up with this valid observation.

A man commits a violent act that he says God told him to do...
In America he is mentally ill.
In the Middle East, he is a hero.

Maybe this isn't true in every case, but it still rings pretty true.
