James Holmes sentenced It is simply a waste of emotional and spiritual energy to hate this
mentally ill man. Our mental health system is an international disgrace.
Hardly a few-not quite corrupt- professional psychiatrists do not
apologize for its insanity.De-institutionalization for a half a century
has been a human catastrophe. Is a sick brain somehow more hateful than a
sick heart or a sick liver ? How many American judges can rise above a
Dark Age view of human wickedness ?
Our legal system is based on
a vague but needed concept of FREE WILL. But can any evolutionary
biologist tell us how and when it evolved in homo-sapiens ?
I don't think human beings are robots. But just how free is our free will ?
