[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Despite the defeatist view in here that we should do nothing, others have taken notice and are trying to do something to prevent this so called completely unpredictable phenomenon.

I applaud this work, especially if it leads to finding ways to combat the radicalization of incense and similar people via internet reforms or changes to our education system.

This is also different than just locking up all self-identified incels, or expecting family members of these men to find some way to lock them up without any support from law enforcement or the mental health community, neither of which will do anything unless you can prove that someone poses and imminent threat to other people, something you generally can't do.[/quote]

Somehow there might be something between do nothing and lock them up. I think some parents of boys are feeling very uncomfortable in here and instead of lashing out at others, should spend more time talking to their own sons and taking stock. [/quote]

No, some of us just realize what an immensely complex situation this is.  The problematic people on here are the ones insisting that you can predict this.  Without someone expressly stating they will commit a crime, you cant jail someone for just being creepy.  They have to do something that amounts to a crime so they can be arrested.  They have to threaten or act.  We really don't want a world like Minority Report.  Hindsight is 20/20 but when you start violating people's rights based on your feelings, that's no good either.  Innocent people can get hurt.  There is no easy solution here.
