In determining whether a person should be committed to a state hospital, conditionally released or discharged, the Board shall have as its primary concern the protection of society. The Board shall not discharge a person whose qualifying mental disorder may, with reasonable medical probability, occasionally become active, and when active, render the person a danger to others.
