Insanity Plea.

Using the whole not guilty by reason of insanity should not exist. Guilty by reason of insanity makes much for sense. People should not be able to get off of their crimes simply for the fact they didn't know right from wrong. It doesn't change the fact the they still did it. Parents yell at their children and punish them when they do something wrong and yet the child didn't know any better. Either they should get sent to a high security psyche ward, or by put to death if they murdered one or multiple people. Insane or not, these people should be punished for their crimes, even if they didn't realize it was wrong.
When it comes to the Andrea Yates case, I 100% believe the woman should have been put to death. I've read about plenty of people who have been put to death for murder, some of them serial killers. By definition this woman is a serial killer. She murdered her five children for god sake, not to mention she planned it for over two years. Yes, her mind was deteriorating, and the whole fanatic priest didn't really help by telling her she was a horrible mother and her kids would rot in hell. But she choose to stop taking her anti psychotic meds, thanks to her stupid husband who wanted to have another child even have a professional psychologist said that she wouldn't be able to handle it. HELLO!!! The woman had been seeing shrinks repeatedly over the years, you think someone should have stopped and thought "Hey, maybe she shouldn't be around her kids, or have any more,". Talk about idiots who have no brain in their skull. And the fact this woman is free to walk round is not right, who's to say she won't kill some other kids she thinks are evil? Once a killer, always a killer, No matter the excuse.

Criminal Idea's

The thing about crime is, it something can't be stop. People like to think that we can create a peaceful place where everyone is safe and equal. But that is impossible for humans to do. The idea of stopping crime is as possible as finding Freddy Krueger under your bed.
Complete impossible since causing chaos is something people like to do. Its in our nature, and inner violence is supported and show through shows and movies. Look at all the horror movies that had come out just in the past year. We as humans love watching others get tortured and chased down and then cut up into pieces by a psychopath. I'm not saying everyone that saw Scream is going to go out and murder people, and I'm not saying its the media's fault that there is crime in the world. Everyone wants a scapegoat to blame, that one thing that we can say is the fault behind crime. Poverty, genetics and media, these are NOT causes of crime. They are simply scapegoats. If we blamed one of these three things on every bad thing that happened, then what caused the war with Irag? Genetics? or Poverty?
People just don't want to face the facts that being violent and causing chaos is in each and everyone of us. Situations and choices simply arise in life, crime just comes from those who make a choice, that's all it is, a choice.
