Your mental disorder may not be your fault but it is your responsibility, and NCR rulings shouldn't be a thing.

This piece of shit has caused irreparable and traumatic damage to an innocent woman and is trying to hide behind a mental health issue.
Well, frankly, even if they were not mentally well that shouldn't absolve the danger or actions. They need to be removed from society. They should get some help. But the length of sentencing should not include leniency. They are criminally responsible.

Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Rules:
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
This is a bit of a mix of rules 4 and 5 to help foster higher quality posts. You are expected to defend your unpopular opinion in the post body. We don't expect a whole manifesto (please, no manifestos), but you should at least provide some details as to why you hold the position you do.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

For me, prison is about quarantine. You quarantine unacceptable behavior, not because they "deserve" it, but because they can't be trusted. I'm not interested in punishment. So I agree that NCR is invalid if the person's mental problems make them into a threat. It's not their "fault" but they still need to be quarantined somehow, because the rest of us have things to do. It's absolutely brutal but it's less brutal than letting criminal behavior run free.
