At an IQ of 58, he’d still have enough intelligence to seek out his instinctual desires, just not enough intelligence to know how to restrain himself or empathize with his victims.

He’d be in an institution, but the liberals closed those. So, he will have to be taken care of when he breaks into somebody’s home.

I don’t know if liberals in England shut down mental asylums. This is not American.

Empathy and constraint aren't that closely linked to intelligence. I've never in my life seen a person with Downs Syndrome that wasn't empathetic. Meanwhile, highly intelligent people who lack empathy are the most deadly psychopaths.

We are agree on the need to institutionalize such persons.
