I believe people who commit crimes such as the shooter executed in Virginia are mentally ill. Their actions alone convince me of that I believe they should be humanely removed from society for the rest of their lives. They should not be killed because they have an illness we don't understand.
I'm fascinated by your ability to diagnose mental illness without any psychiatric tests or brain scans. I would also debate whether or not it is even possible to humanely remove someone from society on a permanent basis. You could argue that very idea is inhumane.
What about cases where the murderers are clearly not mentally ill?
