Yeah I agree, I didn't know if you were being facetious. I've been in arguments with my friend (the one who dated my sociopath example above) and she would like nothing more than to see him locked away forever while I would prefer to see him get help.
As an adult there's very little you can do to "help" a sociopath. I think prison exists for a reason - and surely shouldn't be as overused as it is right now, I think that most mentally ill people can and should be helped by psychiatry instead. But prison pretty much exists as a place to protect the rest of society from sociopaths. I think that's it's main function, and I believe that they more than anyone belong there, because their behavior can't be fully corrected.
