Can we just "Outlaw" People?

ALL TO OFTEN IN TODAY'S SOCIETY WE DON'T PUT THE KILLER ON TRIAL.  WE SAY ITS THE PARENTS FAULT, ITS SOCIETY'S FAULT, THE ACT WAS CAUSED BY DRUG ABUSE, THE KILLER WOULDN'T HAVE DONE IT WITH EASY ACCESS TO GUNS, THE KILLER WAS ABUSED AS A CHILD.  FAR TOO MANY TIMES THE KILLER IS EXCUSED FOR HIS ACTION AND GIVEN A LIGHT SENTENCE OR NONE AT ALL BECAUSE OF THIS OR THAT.  WE LIVE IN A TIME WHERE NO ONE TAKES RESPONSIBILITY FOR HIS OWN ACTIONS.  JUST LIKE MANY IN GOVERNMENT WE PASS THE BUCK.  WE MUST BEGIN TO FACE REALITY:  GUNS DON'T KILL PEOPLE, PEOPLE KILL PEOPLE; MENTAL ILLNESS DOESN'T KILL PEOPLE, PEOPLE KILL PEOPLE.  WE MUST NOT CONTINUE TO EXCUSE A PERSONS ACTIONS BY POINTING TO SOMETHING ELSE.  HELL, WE COULD JUST AS EASY SAY ITS THE MOTHER'S FAULT FOR GIVING BIRTH TO THE KILLER.  MAYBE SHE SHOULD HAVE GONE DIRECTLY TO THE ABORTION CLINIC AND THE KILLING SOME 20 YEARS LATER COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED.
