Killing our children.
I find it hard to understand those who kill children. That it is a mental issue does not fill the bill for me. If you kill the innocent, you have stepped over a line the defies reason.
Insanity pleas are a cop out in that many times the perpetrator runs in order to not be caught. That tells me they most certainly understand they did something wrong. To not acknowledge or deny that you did not understand it was wrong defies all common sense if you have the presence of mind to try to hide.
Law and Order must be at the top of the list if we citizens are to find peace and security. Stupidity is no more a legal defense than denial. Judges must be firm in dealing out justice and juries cannot bail on their legal obligations to the public they are supposed to serve.
