Morality is the guide of Human's existence. It's a moral contract between human beeings.

I thought that is what a wiffle ball bat was........

Now I'm confused..........

Is that like when a doctor points to the legs of a woman in labor and says, "part 'em."

He should get a lawyer, rather than walking into an office and murdering everyone. And as you told the story, he didn't just snap. He had built-up frustration for awhile.

I understand that good people can have emotional breakdowns, I know I've had my share, but morality has always kept me from stepping over that line. I just think that the insanity plea is bogus. So many criminals are babied by the system. Morality and personal responsibility is put on the backburner, while excuses are handed out.

That's the key point with insanity, however... when you 'snap' and have an 'actual' breakdown, you no longer cognizant of what is right and wrong.  Of course... the right thing would be to get a lawyer... but, even as frustration builds, you don't necessarily realize that you are going to eventually snap.  You don't realize that you will eventually break down.  If breakdowns could be avoided... then, of course, there would be no need for the insanity plea. 

Journey, if you had a true 'emotional breakdown' and you were able to keep your sense of morality about you, it wasn't a true 'breakdown' of your sanity.  A true breakdown of sanity means that you no longer know the difference between what you should do and what you shouldn't do... you are no longer 'sane'. 

That does not mean that the insanity plea is not overused.  I think that the justice system in this nation (US) Is largely abused.

"Part 'em" is an actual medical term.

That makes sense. I just feel like people kind of erase responsibility when they take that route. If a guy knows he has a problem, whatever it may be, he should get help before he 'snaps' it onto someone else.

That would, of course, be ideal.   But, we don't always know when or if we are going to snap... that's kind of why it's called "snap" because its not something that we can predict... it happens... like a 'snap'. 

If we could predict when we are going to lose it, we wouldn't have the need for the insanity plea, nor would we need mental institutions or hospitals, or psychiatrists, or therapists...because we would have control of our mental facilities at all times.

Unfortunately, we can't predict these things.  So... we do need these institutions and people.
