End Wokeness @EndWokeness Zohran Mamdani on abolishing prisons and jail: "What purpose do they serve, besides making people feel good?"
Too dumb to breathe.
He’s not the first.
The AOC and other points were that too many persons of color are arrested and incarcerated, which means innocent people are being jammed into prisons. Decarceration of current inmates, restoring their full voting rights and reduction and elimination of some current prisons were all topics for AOC.

Mamdani is Insane
Yep, cut off a hand or feet anf........ Just like the Muslims do. Then prisons won’t be needEd.
I think so, too, if the three stooges get it together and decide which two are going to to drop out
Let’s have Mamdani spend a day or two in one of those jails and see if he feels the same way afterward.
There are five reasons for prisons: Punishment, Rehabilitation, Deterrent, Public Protection, and Retribution.
Okay then. Instead of prison, let’s institute punishments for different crimes. Murder means a public hanging within 14 days from the date of conviction. A conviction for rape results in being castrated. If it is a minor, then immediate hanging.
For theft, the punishment is the dominant hand being amputated. Home invasion results in a hand and foot both being removed. A first DUI means 30 days without a driver’s license, but a second DUI removes driving privileges for life. Any 3rd felony results in a public hanging.
I can get more creative if need be.
Maybe they will lock him up in one and he will enjoy it immensely.
“Serious question: Does he do drugs?”
No. Just goats.
He is being stupid! Isn’t he aware that prison is great place for Muslim converts.
I like the way you think.
No prison, so let’s just kill the people we’re pretty sure are baddies. Sure, we might get a few wrong. What do they call that in war? Collateral damage.
The good news is we won’t be sent to prison!
Form some vigilante groups... What, that’s ILLEGAL. So what, they’re not sending anyone to prison so who the F cares!?!
Twit should read some history. Comrade Stalin just loved prisons and jails.
They protect the general public from people who would harm them through repeat offending.
There’s also the issue of justice.
BINGO!
The argument could be made that prisons were originally designed to protect the incarcerated from the righteous anger of the general populace.
