I attended a parole hearing where one of the applicants claimed that he wanted release to “take care of the chirren and to be, you know, a dad man, and do the right thing . . .”.
He had 44 children.
Forty four.
His petition was denied, by the way.
Imagine the welfare costs this one man has placed upon the taxpayers by helping to produce children he cannot support! It is probably better that the taxpayers support him behind bars (and we are probably supporting his 44 kids and their “baby mamas” already) rather than risk him getting out and creating 44 MORE societal burdens!
It should be suggested to him that a voluntary permanent sterilization might improve his chances of parole (depending on what he was in for in the first place). If I was on the parole board I wouldn’t CONSIDER parole otherwise.
