I've debated this on this board a number of times before, but just like when it comes to discussing the death penalty, people use their hearts and not their brains.

And by that, I mean it's all purely emotional for them.

One thing that really bothers me are these states that take a sex offender after they have served their time, and put them into a mental hospital for what could effectively be a life term.

The sex offender can't leave until the mental hospital says they are "cured," and or safe.

If the accused cannot argue diminished mental capacity, or plead not guilty by reason of mental defect during the trial, because they say they are "sane." Then how can you punish someone criminally, only to tell them AFTER they served that time, that now they are crazy and have to be held in a mental institution.
