Why people excuse perpetrators

WHY DO PEOPLE EXCUSE INSANE PERPETRATORS

Confucius ' law : an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth . one that 'd done something against others will be punished according to his /her offense or the crime he /she committed . But today 's government does not allow this principle of Confucius

Why ? Simply because , we allow considerations and give second chances these days . We now know how to forgive and forget . We believe in the divine justice and entrust God to punish verdict in His own will . We know what 's morality

and immorality . We choose to be God 's followers

It is stated in the revised penal code of the Philippines that an imbecile person , person of a minor age , person who committed crime in defense of self and others , and by accident will be free from any liability or punishment

What 's has been our difference with the person in insanity ? We 're on our right thinking , right ? We can think about what 's right and wrong and decide for things in good causes . We went to schools and studied morality . We also studied psychology and humanities . social studies and stuff

What could satisfy the side of the victim ? The death of the criminal What punishment does he /she deserve ? Imprisonment ? Garrote ? Lethal injection ? Salvage ? What
