Nice name... TabaccoJuice... And the alternative... 'also known as "Serena Nicotine"... Too funny.

What's not funny... The violence this woman constantly displays throughout her lifetime... She should 'never' be released from prison, and as for all those 'excuses'... She and her lawyer can stick those in a peace-pipe and smoke 'em.

I really dislike the idea of warehousing prisoners. I think prisons should be mostly empty.

Instead, I prefer liberal use of capital punishment, and for lesser crimes, really severe caning like they do in Singapore. It should be so bad that the criminal dreads the thought of ever breaking any rule ever again.

““The sentence imposed by this court must ensure that Ms. Tobaccojuice can see the light at the end of the tunnel “

The tunnel she is already in is a life sentence.

Where do you draw the line?

The Cree woman from Saskatchewan, who is also known as Serena Nicotine,

She's the child of Myron Bongwater, and Esther Cancerstick.

“she blocked the door of her unit at the Nova Institution for Women and prevented two guards from leaving. She held tweezers fashioned into a weapon and threatened both the officers and herself. The guards, who stood calmly throughout, were not injured.”

Tweezers.....really? That’s all she had?

In my state she woulda been maced, hogtied and put in a one person cell for an extended period to think about her stupidity.

Tweezers.....unfreakinbelievable. SMH

Sounds like the only rehabilitation that would work for her would be an execution.

I see three tiers of justice.

1) First offense for anything that traditionally sends someone to prison: Caning, then they are returned to society.

2) Further offenses: prison terms up to 5 years for simple assault, property crimes, things like that. Food in prison could basically be mashed potatoes. You can live forever on mashed potatoes. But you won’t like it.

3) No one ever spends more than 5 years in prison. If your crime is serious and justified by more than 5 years, or if you’ve been there before and an additional prison sentence would put your total time at more than 5 years, then it’s death penalty.

We really don’t have to have a crime problem in this country. We can get rid of criminals.

About a year ago I got into a documentary on Netflix called “Inside the World’s Toughest Prisons”.

First thing I noticed was in the colder climates like Germany ans Iceland the prisons were more like hotels with the inmates have a lot of freedom.

Prisons in the warmer climates like the Philippines, Africa and central America were absolute hell holes.

You asked for more detail. I gave you more detail. You complain some more. And what are you contributing? Looks like nothing. Come back when you have an idea in your head.

Canada: A really friendly place. Just ask the prison guards.

“You asked for more detail. I gave you more detail. “

Please!

You originally gave TWO tiers.

I asked what was the division between the two You gave; death penalty and gaining. You came back with THREE; death penalty, jail and caining.

“You complain some more. “

PLEASE! I didn’t complain. I just noted that you had changed from TWO to THREE.

Her nickname is, “CHEW!” Nothing “serene” about Serena.
Murder is taking another human’s life.
The history of her living a hard life is, NO WAY, an excuse to kill.
Self defense, in fear of one’s life, is the only acceptable reason to kill.

Chew should be locked up for life. If naughty in prison, solitary confinement.

Ok, I made up the nickname.

I generally don't go back-and-forth-with people, but you are being obtuse.

My original post, in full, but with some text now in bold:

I really dislike the idea of warehousing prisoners. I think prisons should be mostly empty.

Instead, I prefer liberal use of capital punishment, and for lesser crimes, really severe caning like they do in Singapore. It should be so bad that the criminal dreads the thought of ever breaking any rule ever again.

You posted a partial snippet of my original post and asked where I draw the line. So I listed three levels and tried to define "lines" for each.

prison
capital punishment
caning

All three are right there in my original post.

Well, Canada doesn’t have a death penalty and this trash shouldn’t see the light of day.
