These types of people go super nuts from calm if boys as the testosterone hits in their teens. If they have mental conditions of several kinds they should be permanently chemically or otherwise castrated to prevent their sexual overdrive from taking their crazy to these violent outcomes.

What I am saying is pure logic, nothing to do with how people feel.
If you don’t block these young men’s testosterone from making them more nuts in their teens then you will have to end up jailing all these people which is far crueler IMO.

You wouldn’t want this kind of kid breeding anyway, so I think castration chemically or however you can block the hormones would be the most compassionate way to stop the crazy.

Jail or lobotomy would be far worse IMO.

Thank you for correcting me on that bit of history! Maybe this mass shooting will move some within the mental health profession to institutionalize people like Lanza.

Thinking about it now it did behoove the Leftists to let the nutburgers out of their institutionalization because they could add it to their voter base. The Left is certifiably insane as far as I’m concerned. Just look at our national debt. No sane individual would have let it get out of hand like it has.

I for one didn’t know the details on the Left letting the loonies out of their institutionalization. I have always heard it was Reagan’s fault even from fellow Freepers. I’ll double check next time before I repeat hearsay.

Sorry about the language. That false attribution bugs me. They blame Reagan for all the homeless because of it and I hear someone say it almost weekly.

Hear, Hear - this is a major problem that must be addressed. It is not the guns, it is that we have people on the streets that should be in restricted treatment centers or mental institutions (most are closed).

And, we must have some way to remove these computer killer training programs - that would be the games that promote evil and violence.

“No Mental disease will not be a thing of the past.

It will simply become the new “normal.” umfortunately.”

Apparently it ALREADY is! Just one example, a recent poll by Rassmussen showing that over fifty percent of Americans approve the job Obama is doing but only forty six percent like the health care act which is supposed to be his crowning achievement and only twenty six percent think health care will improve in the next few years. If you can reconcile those figures please tell me how because it sounds as crazy as Dan Rather to me.
