Well, there is civil commitment.
The Supreme Court just upheld civil commitment for certain child molesters, so yeah, people in some cases can be locked up for things they "might" do.
Probably not someone like Cho though. If we start locking up people for acting nutty and taking anti-depressants, we'll have to lockup a lot of people.
