To: null and void

All this is so that one day the left can declare criminality a disease and eliminate jail time for crime.

In the ‘mind’ of the left, there is no free will, so no one chooses to commit a crime.

Yes. But when one with a predisposition commits a violent crime we now have that predisposition manifest.

At that point, a sane society only has the option of recognizing that this is a case where the criminal MUST be eliminated. He (or more rarely, she) has demonstrated both he has the potential to become violent, and he has demonstrated his ability and desire to do so.

He has forfeited his right to continue to be a clear and present danger to his neighbors.

Only a madman or a liberal (but I repeat myself) would argue for the right for a rabid animal to have free run of the playground.

Does rabies give a raccoon a pass when it bites a child?

Why should a brain defect give a man the right to again run free and murder another?

As for those who have dead or atrophied frontal lobes/amygdala and manage to live a civil life, more power to them! They are of better stuff than those of us who never feel the temptation, the urge, and have no intrinsic resources stopping them. My hat's off to them. They have to rise above their nature, and that is what marks us as human, we can be better than our base natures by an act of will and willpower.
