When someone is suspected of being unstable and a threat to themselves or others, there are methods for dealing with this involving a hearing where the accused has a chance to face his accusers and contradict them with the aid of legal representation, a neutral judge, and a jury of his peers. That has to happen first, before any action is taken against him or his property. We are presumed innocent in the US till proven otherwise in a proper court of law. Yes, there are risks to society in this. A free people is willing to accept that risk.
