Piss on the ADA and open the asylums again.
Not everybody is equal no matter how many times you say it.
Yep that nonsense about low IQ being an exception or modifier for punishment is nonsense.
In fact a violent low IQ person is probably going to be HARDER to be rehabilitated back into society.
As a nation we were much more pragmatic in the early 1800s.
These were the kind of people that electroshock therapy was originally intended for...people who were too violent to be around other people, including guards and psychiatric staff. Instead, it was used as a control mechanism for as many committed people as they could use it on.
In cases like this the Leftists (who were the ones advocating this “humane” approach) determined that, for animals like these, the “right” to uninhibited freedom for those disturbed people was greater than the right of personal safety to any unsuspecting citizen who encountered them.
And we get this. An unsuspecting teacher’s aide, interacting with this beast who apparently had “triggers” ranging from taking away an electronic game to looking him in the eye (gee, that sounds vaguely familiar) has lost her health and her livelihood.
She was lucky she didn’t lose her life itself.
As for him? I don’t believe all the “trigger” BS. He has low impulse control and had open license to do as he pleased, at least until he beat this person to a pulp and woke up normal people to those dangers.
However, the same people that advocate for uninhibited freedom for people who are as dangerous as this perp is, no doubt still have the “courage of their convictions” and believe he should be out walking the street to beat some other person senseless.
They should be forced to live in close quarters with him for a month.
