No. You’re wearing me out. One last time...
If they can’t be rehabilitated in 5 years, they can’t be rehabilitated. Granted, my 5 year number is pulled out of thin air and I could be off one way or the other by a few years(i’m no psychologist). But you get my point. Even though you are trying real hard to not get it, you still get it. It’s way to simple to not get.
There’s no excuse whatsoever to keep a human being locked up for 50 or 100 goddam years. NONE. It is totally asinine. It’s worse than that. It’s evil. And it is a waste of money to boot.
All this results in — in practice — is everyone gets 5-year sentences and no one gets the death penalty, except those who take a life (or as is allowed in law right now for the death penalty).
All you accomplish by this is maximum five year sentences for everything, and nothing else (aside from existing death penalty cases, as provided by law right now).
