Should mentally ill people get the same punishment as those who are not mentally ill?
No they shouldn't, as much as we like to think people are in control of their own actions people with mental health issues are not all of the time that is why they need medication. For example a person experiencing mania who has bipolar does not realise it because they are completely delusional and feel extremely good with loads of self confidence so they don't see a problem and their thought process is so out of control and fast they cannot think straight so it would be unfair to give them the same punishment as some one who is in control of their behaviour, they should still get punishment but not as severe because as much as we like to think their in control most of the time they are not. But if they realised what they did was wrong and had control then they should, but it should be up to the courts to decide if their actions were because of their mental illness. So all in all we should take into account that mental illnesses can disrupt peoples lives and can cause people to behave in completely strange ways and not all of the time a person can help it.
