Then incarceration in mental institutions and long term drug rehab facilities seems like the only answer.

I don't know if modern institutions could be better. However we know they failed in the past. If you want to propose them again, you need to provide some proof that they new ones will be better than the old.

- goatlover 3y agoBecause I don't feel any shame out of what seems like the necessary thing to do. But maybe you can show me the commandment from on high where I should feel shame. Or better yet than shaming, you could provide an alternative that works.
