I've always been a little bit off on the concept of not criminally responsible.

If the question is were they insane when they killed a bunch of people unprovoked. Then the answer is Yes, they killed a bunch of people unprovoked. I don't need to be a psychologist to see that.

How does that change the fact that they committed a crime. I don't think there is a single mass murderer that does not need both psychiatric help, and punishment that has a major impact on their life.
