On Tuesday, I wrote an essay on the subway-riding black woman who'd been the subject of a "haunting" image taken by a Reuters photographer-not the picture showing her bent over and spraying her feces across a subway car floor, but the racially provocative one where she sat in a literal sea of Patriot Front members, giving a "thousand-yard stare" of "dignified terror," in the words of The 19th News's Errin Haines. 
Now, I included an observation made by someone online, which noted how quickly this woman's "mental illness" vanished when she felt a constraint to behave like a normal person-that being surrounded by a bunch of white men whom she surmised wouldn't take an ounce of her shi*. 
This isn't to say she's a person with no mental issues, but that day, sitting quietly and civilly on the subway, her "mental illness" didn't get to be her excuse to yank her shorts down, get on her knees, and take a dump on the public transit system. 
And that needs to be expounded upon, because it's actually really profound. 
This isn't to say mental illness isn't real, but it's the cop out we've been saying it is, the "mitigating factor" that really shouldn't be part of the judicial process at all-and the Subway Shi**er just proved it. 
How mentally ill are these people, actually ? 
Is it really a mental illness outburst or meltdown we're witnessing with scenes like this? 
Is Decarlos Brown Jr. in the midst of a psychotic episode when he knifes a white girl and asserts "I got that white bit*h" as he leaves the scene of the crime? 
What about the endless stories of third world migrants committing heinous and violent crimes, either here or in Europe, only to be essentially released from culpability because of their "mental health" status? 
This was from February (note the "until he recovers" admission): 
BREAKING: 
A French court rules that the 67-year-old Senegalese migrant Ousmane Diallo can't be held criminally responsible for killing 18-year-old Théo. 
Ousmane became furious in a mobile phone shop after having been told he would have to pay €93 for calls made to Senegal.

To answer all that, no, no we're largely not witnessing mental health crises. 
We're witnessing disturbed people who have been permitted to indulge in every single animalistic impulse that's ever zipped across their brains, with essentially no consequences. 
And, as someone pointed out, there's a substantial financial incentive to be "mentally disabled" - Social Security benefits! 
The historical standard, the Wild Beast Test, only determined a person (defendant) to be legally insane if they were "no more than an infant, than a brute, or a wild beast." 
This Wild Beast Test preceded the M'Naghten Rule, which is what we (and the U.K.) have in place. 
I say, eliminate it all. 
Too brutish or beastly in your behavior? 
Then too brutish or beastly to keep on living with the civilized humans. 
Clearly, these people can keep it together when they feel the pressure to do so-do we really think Decarlos Brown Jr. would have knifed anyone from behind if he'd been riding the train with 50 imposing white men? 
I think not at all . 
And, the prospect of capital punishment is a great motivator to behave.
