Do you not think the nature of criminal mind hasn't been debated for centuries? If you're going to label everybody who murders another person as 'mentally ill' then do it for lesser crimes as well because the same liberal interpretation of 'mentally ill' applies - I think somebody who scams an old person out of their life savings is a sick twisted fuck. Everybody who does anything criminal has an excuse, as we create more 'mental illness' categories everybody eventually will have a diagnosis of being mentally ill in some way.

For criminal acts we define 'criminally insane' the way it should be defined, only when the mental illness is so severe that the criminal can't understand the nature of his crime or control his impulses.
