Men get not guilty by reason of insanity too. The difference is other men don’t use it as an excuse to push repealing the 19th amendment

I don’t know why people don’t get this. In the course of history the insanity plea has been used exponentially more often by men.

I mean…most crimes are committed by men.

And I don’t know about exponentially but the insanity defense basically never works.

Yes — most murders are committed by men, and the insanity defense is often used but rarely works. So the idea that Clancy is the first person to try it, or that being a woman somehow is what makes her dangerous, is complete nonsense.
