Really? And how's that been working out?

If you were to set the bar for the insanity plea too low, there would be no prevention as no one would ever be found guilty.
Sorry. Again, I'm going to have to ask you what is 'prevention' is that you're referring to?
And again, can you connect the dots between being found guilty of a 'crime of passion' to preventing its reoccurrence?
So really you are just arguing to get rid of the insanity plea or laws that you can plead insane to.
Absolutely not.
On the contrary.
I'm making the irrefutable argument to get rid of Criminal Law.
Teach mothers to make the logical case to their children for why they should (or shouldn't) act - when it is (or isn't) in the child's best interests.
Arrest anyone and everyone suspected of creating junkies addicted to emotional validation; compliments, a desire to please their parents, or avoid their displeasure. Sentence them to education, without parole; until they realise the only thing they care about is their child's happiness. Triple offenders are neutered.
There are also semantic arguments. Legal insanity has a lot higher bar than regular ol insanity. Something can be sane and insane at the same time.
Please provide an example of something sane and insane at the same time?
Insanity is the incapacity to act in your own best interests. This includes confusion, ignorance, chemical imbalances, emotional corruption (wanting what you cannot have, until you have it; etc) and all loss of control. You cannot refer to "legal insanity" as if it actually has relevance. I'm arguing that the Law creates the confusion that creates the pain that creates the emotional angst that creates the crime.
I think you probably know this.. but damn man you write a lot. For shock value i guess ?
Brevity is the soul of shock rather than wit. It's why banners, headlines and punchlines have replaced logical arguments. A banner doesn't have to "show all working".
I write long essays because when I try to edit 5000 words it turns into 15000.
Whats tapper up to .. you have crimes of passion with him ?
As a matter of fact, yes. In my exuberance, and because his mate didn't realise he was already toasted, I gave tapper's god mate Lawso too much franky one day on holiday.
Hilarity ensued. Decorum precludes my outlining the details but they included - from memory:
* A Eurasian hooker with rubber gloves.
* tapper on the floor, wheezing and trying to juggle the laughter vs breathing dilemma
* my banging my head into the carpet, trying to slant a similar battle in favour of breath (I'm a survivor)
* Lawso calling us godless liars the next day, and all manner of slurs, for our 'fabricating' reality; before walking gingerly to the mini-bar
I was responsible for the crime. Lawso the passion. Tapper just pulled out his 14" schlong at which point everyone, including the Eurasian hooker - stopping laughing.
