So murderers and rapists are also mentally ill? What about child molesters? Are they mentally ill as well? It's a grave crime.
Yup and these people only exist because society moulds and creates them. Murder and violence is also not a bad thing. It needs direction.
The child molesters should be shot in the head for their mental illness, its the only cure that we know of.
I think the problem here is that you are viewing mental illness as an excuse when it shouldn't be used as an excuse. After all these people ask to be treated as equals, well anyone who isn't "mentally ill" and performs such heinous acts is put to death, in a sane world anyway.
There are mentally insane people that get put in mental hospitals and not prison because they are a danger to society. But yeah, to say someone is mentally ill is an excuse because it means they are not responsible for their actions and this is just a flat out lie in general. Yes, there are mentally ill crazy people who have no clue what they are doing. That's not what I'm talking about here.
