And you can't assume that everyone who needs help is a soon to be killer.

Agreed, though regardless of the side of the line they're on, we should still be helping them. Perhaps this will help governments decide that mental health care needs to be included in health care benifits as well? Beyond that, as was stated before, you can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make it drink. So then what? Do you lock up everyone who seems clinically depressed? As you've said, you can't enforce that.
