his parents, better than anyone, should've known he was unstable and should've gotten him help...not lock him up

How would they know that he's unstable?  He writes screwy scripts... so what?  That doesn't mean that he's going to go on a rampage.

I totally agree with iago on this one... there's little that could have been done.  It's sickeningly tragic, but it's just the way things are.
See, the thing that I don't really understand about that is like, "Hamlet," written by the grandfather of the modern english language, had the same concept. When I read that kid's play, that's all I could think of, the paralels between that and Hamlet. I mean, it's creepy yes, but if we didn't lock up Shakespeare, why lock up this kid?

So you heard from someone who heard from someone who may have read somewhere that he was declared dangerous by some court. That's fantastic! I don't see how anybody can cast a doubt on that!
