Physically, handicaps are just more visible. But the brain is physical, too. Of course there are doctors who do unnecessary shit to make money, natural cures not revealed to selll products etc etc... I'm aware of all of that and I didn't go to see a doctor for anything (and I mean anything) apart from the time when I had to check if I had a fracture in my cheekbone since I was like 15. That's not what I'm arguing against. The point is that some people DO have mental conditions that can't be "overcome", can't be changed entirely. People who are "normal" tend to not understand this. Again, the brain is just an organ... and if it's genetically destined to be a certain way, there is no way to fully solve the issue. Just look at all the people who have a very strong urge to kidnap, rape and kill little boys. They can't be helped. They get put in special institutions instead of jail and all, but in the end no matter what is done, those people just aren't normal. And they will never be. Of course drugs won't solve the problem, but they can make life easier. Some problems can't be solved. Ever. It's a frustrating thought, but it's a reality many people can't deal with.Quote from: Now_I_Know on June 04, 2007, 11:28:20 AMYou are what you think you are.Pipe dream.
So people who kidnap, molest, rape etc. have a "chemical imbalance"? FUCK THAT. That's a criminal cop-out.
It's the way they've handled their brain since birth that makes them who they are.
Most of these people are fully functional and capable of improving. They're simply morons who don't have control over themselves.
Of course if you lock them away and numb their brains, it'll stop them, but you think that's the only way?
Not saying those dickheads deserve a chance to improve
but someone like Al Bundy CERTAINLY does, and I think if he considered what's being said, that's the first step right there...
If somebody has a damaged frontal lobe, or not a fully developed frontal lobe it's literally impossible for that person to function normally.

They're simply morons who don't have control over themselves. so somebody who molests a little kid is capable of improvement, are you fuckin serious?of course they don't have control over themselves, maybe that's why they need to be locked up instead of "improving"Quote from: Now_I_Know on June 04, 2007, 11:43:53 AMOf course if you lock them away and numb their brains, it'll stop them, but you think that's the only way?um, yes dipshitQuote from: Now_I_Know on June 04, 2007, 11:43:53 AMNot saying those dickheads deserve a chance to improvethis goes against all that you just wrote Quote from: Now_I_Know on June 04, 2007, 11:43:53 AMbut someone like Al Bundy CERTAINLY does, and I think if he considered what's being said, that's the first step right there...no one is denying that, just realize people are either gonna do it or not, why are you trying to sway opinions?
