Realize that very few people that seek treatment for mental illness commit crimes and that the people that shoot and kill people are not all mentally ill. It is a fallacy that all of these incidents are due to mental illness. BTW, while I find HIPAA annoying in many ways (mainly because people don't understand how to apply it) you would be very upset if someone violated your HIPAA rights and blasted your personal medical information to anyone...say your boss or your parents. There are good reasons for these laws.
