Yes, I agree there are a lot of people who should be locked up simply because they are a danger to others.

Bad parents probably wouldn't notice these things and may be the cause of many of the issues if abuse or neglect is involved.
Not sharing the last cookie with lil sis: violence!

There are millions of horrible parents in this country. The blood is on their hands.
Children are not dogs who can be fully "controlled" unless you plan to raise your kids like max security prisoners who have never been exposed to the outside world in any way and have zero privacy.

I want to apply to be the government goon who determines what a "McJob" is/isn't.

Now imagine if another person was like that, but they actively tried to HIDE their emotions. No one would ever know. Not even their parents.
Then surely you try to get outside help for your child? Have them assessed and given extra support at school? The kind of rage that leads to a mass killing doesn't just happen overnight and I believe some people just choose not to see the warning signs until it's too late Or perhaps they really did help create the monster by abusing or neglecting that child?

You got a problem with totalitarianism?

I see a re-education camp in your future.

Several of those are just symptoms of being an introvert (lacking friends, reclusive, not openly talking about feelings).
