Some opinionaters seem to think that violent criminals are simply "deviant" and nothing else. Just that-- "deviant."
This is too mild a term and is inaccurate. Individuals that are murderers, rapists, child abusers, and the like, are not just "deviant." I wish the book would get its terminology right. These are criminals. These things that they do are disgusting and horrid and violate another human being’s sense of safety and well-being. Not to mention harm against the person’s physical safety.
And not merely because the law says so. It shouldn’t have to be stated on a piece of paper that a certain act is wrong. People should already have their own innate sense of right and wrong that stems from having a conscience, having morals, being a human being who lives in civilized society. People who are of this human race should already have a strong idea of what constitutes violent, immoral behavior. Having state-mandated regulations still are certainly a good thing because it means that a person should be convicted, found guilty, and sent to jail.
It’s strange that it newspapers or wherever, there seem to only be extremes on this opinion. Some editorialists are under the impression that a mentally ill person does not necessarily know that what they are doing is wrong.
They still must be punished in some form. The crime that they committed, murder or anything of a violent, violating nature, is serious enough that the person who committed it should be punished no matter what. I think they are able to understand that they are being put in jail because they did something wrong. If staying out of jail is the only incentive to prevent someone from committing a crime, so be it.
I think it is ludicrous and insane that criminals can get away with murder by using the "insanity" plea. Allowing murderers to live and be fed, clothed, and housed and having all of it paid for by hardworking decent, honest, noncriminal people -- that is what is truly insane.
Not throwing brutal murderers in prison -- liberal logic being that instead of punishing them and "giving up" on them, we should offer then guidance and rehabilitation.
These are not self-defense killings, they are premeditated murders. Just think about that for a minute, and be honest with yourself. This person committed murder, and they are an adult. How old is this person?? This is not a child that has never seen the outside world. This is a grown-up. this is someone that has free will, that is a grown-up fully capable of [[amassing]] their own decisions. of weighing the pros and cons of a situation, of sizing up the situation and gauging what the possibilities will be. This is a grown-up who is responsible for their own choices in life. This is a grown-up that is fully capable of accepting responsibility for their actions. Let me repeat, this is a grown-up adult. This is a person who is fully equipped with the needed faculties to understand that actions have consequences. This person has the comprehension skills required to understand why murder is wrong. They are fully capable of extrapolating what the possible outcomes will be for any decision they would make.
And too, if someone has not been guided in their life before they have become an adult and set in their ways, there is not much realistic possibility that they will suddenly magically change their minds now.
That episode where they were mad that the movie cut out a whole shooting-crime-spree scene, and then bobby had the opinion that the outlaw was a pretty nice guy. What the “Brady Bunch” was trying to say, and what the original founders of free speech meant, is that we need to know the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. You can't cut out big chunks of the truth and still thinking you are getting the whole truth. We need to know what kinds of sick people exist out there. So that we can be informed and able to make good judgments and keep ourselves alert and aware. I don’t want you being ignorant and thinking this guy was a good person when the plain fact is he was not. You need to know the whole story.

you on the other hand, you are glorifying and in essence lying. you're trying to convince everyone to look at the so-called human side of murderers, drug lords, r--ists.
really? human side? I remember a detective woman was a guest on Jane Pauley's talk show a few years back. she said that in conversation, murderers and psychopaths will tell you everything you want to hear. they will come off as being convincingly charming, witty, a little sad -- and they can VERY convincingly portray a bit of remorse and guilt. enough to fool the vast majority of people. and it takes an extremely skilled and patient detective, meaning an investigator and psychologist, to be able to discern the fact that the psychopath is faking all of it.
lisa ling on the other hand went into a prison cell, talked with some inmates for about ten minutes, then lisa ling and her airhead self came back out all bubbly and cheerful, "ohmigish they are like so totally human they are like not bad people at all, they’re totally nice, just totally give them like a chance, just be open-minded and like not afraid to take risks." Well. lisa ling is not a skilled trained expert in human behavior, certainly not the way a police detective is.
which I guess does not really surprise me. all these guys found their pit chicks, their females that they can treat like s--- and slap around whenever they want. hitler had a dog and a girlfriend -- does that erase all the other things he did?
