So brain damage affects behavior?

Last I checked they've linked the portions of the brain relating to love to the area's that deal with addiction. Removing a portion of the brain to get rid of an addiction could have a huge effect on the person. Self discipline is still the best cure for cigarette addictions.

Hopefully the Europeans don't hear this though or there goes a large portion of our exports to western europe.

Not actually a good thing you know…it will just steer government back to lobotomy as an alternative for prison again…..
