If a schizophrenic committed suicide would that make them a mass murderer?

Sure, why does the definition need to be on the physical bodies?

I think "NO". A think a schizophrenic suicide is mental. Yet a mass murderer has bit more insanity because he has the ability to do 'mass'.

Great question. Reminds me of a joke. Guy goes out and gets cloned, but his clone is a real jerk. Shouting profanities, exposing himself, flipping the bird - the works. Finally, he's had enough. He lures his double to the roof of the apartment building, only to get him to fall off the edge.
The cops arrested him for making an obscene clone fall, so I guess anything is possible.

Schizophrenia isn't the same as multiple personalities. Schizophrenia is a split with reality and multiple personalities is a split in personality. It's very rare.

no... i think its not mass murderer....
B'coz schizophrenia is a abnormal condition of mind in which a person does the thind which his mind says
" yes,.... its the better option"
But the peoples who are with the patient should explin him why he shouldent do that... inspite of being said "No"....

Naah because the voices don't usually have bodies to go with them.

No
I think it would be considered accidental on the death certificate, as they weren't in the frame of mind that is considered "normal."
