I basically agree, but we cannot worry too much, or we become like liberals. Always worried about the 1 person who was innocent while the 99 get to run free and continue their crimes. Because even 5 years of jail is too “mean”.
Actually, Russia has the best prison I ever heard of: The Black Dolphin.
Look it up. We should run OUR prisons like the Black Dolphin.
If we did that, I would be willing to start opposing the death penalty.
That's an easy number to throw out, until you or your son are the 1%. And that's assuming the false accusation rate is that low.
while the 99 get to run free and continue their crimes.
Who said anything about letting them run free. Hit them with long sentences. If it turns out later that they were innocent, then some level of redress is still possible.
