Mental-health professionals are reliably liberal and reliably oppose segregating and sanctioning people for cause, who have certain mental impairments.
Homosexuality is a paraphilia, but mental-health professionals (led by homosexual psychiatrists and psychologists) have bent over backwards, over the last 40 years, to insist that homosexuals are not more self-destructive or recidivist than other persons, in the case of offending homosexuals (pederasts, e.g.), and that AIDS/HIV vectors should not be "stigmatized" by quarantining -- this last demand was slammed onto the table back in 1981 by gay political activists. Homosexual HIV-positive men proceeded to spread the epidemic far and wide and turn a medical curiosity into a microbiological meatgrinder.
The commies in Cuba got one thing right right, that quarantine.
