Are Mentally Ill Getting Attacked More Frequently NOW?

I know they are statistically more likely to be the victims of violence, rather than the cause (please, look it up). But I was wondering about the fall-out from Newtown and other mass shootings were the shooter was, or was alleged to be, mentally ill.

I can just speak from where I live, Detroit. Here are two incidents from nearby Redford Township:

Well, that's what's happening where I live. What is it like for the rest of you?

 

It's not getting worse, just more coverage.
