I don't get it. I'm suscribed but can't find the end of the interview. I wish there was a smoother way of downloading the audio. Thanks so much for the show

Just adding something to the very serious issue of mass shootings: people with mental illness are more likely to be victims of all types of violence and when they are violent, they are more likely to be violent against themselves. When they or their family members do call for help, they are likely to be murdered by the police. But the bigger issue is that, in the rare occasions when people with mental illness commit such crimes, it is because in this country it is easier to buy a gun than to get medical care. And the solution is not more asylums, like some people propose. The solution is more individualized care and support
