Deep Question

Should patients with a mental health disorder that makes them a threat to society be forced to take their medications? Should patients with a mental health disorder that are not threats to society at the moment but may become a threat in the future be forced to take their medications as sort of a preemptive strike? Or should a patient's right to refuse medical treatment supercede any real or potential threats to the public?
