Nah, it's not super wrong.
You are arguing technical definitions, which is absolutely useful and interesting on a certain level. But to look wider at the concept that people who do horrible things all have a level of mental defectiveness is very reasonable. The level it is at, and the way it manifests is certainly different, but to debate where the legal system has placed a somewhat arbitrary line is completely legitimate.
This situation is interesting in that most of the spectrum of opinion that is shown in this thread is quite reasonable and defensible. There isn't much here that is completely ridiculous. There are some that for various reasons believe in more individual rights at the cost of others potential safety. And the side that is more comfortable limiting some individual rights to protect the many.
But the discussion over the concept of NCR and why the line is placed where it is in regard to differing mental illness' is anything but 'super wrong'.
