Do away with the convict schools.
Do away with the TV’s and the movies.
No radios. No phones. No recorded anything.
No gyms. No healthy never get fat meals.

You, convict, stole from us, but then we have to pay fopr years, to keep you alive?
You, convict, murdered us. But our families get the privilege of watching you grow old, and all they get is a stone marker?

Make the jails the place they were meant to be, punishment.
A convict has a bad heart? Make them run laps!
A convict has cancer? Again, we, are expected to pay for that. Not this kid!

Hey, maybe there is an ex-con out there, sucking up your disability money, because of their brought-on-by-themselves-medical condition????

No mercy from this kid towards an ex-con, period.

News flash....

Most people in prison are there for drugs or victimless crimes. Your entire argument just crumbled. If your punishment is worse than the crime, you might have an issue. Do you like to resolve issues or do you bury your head in the sand like a coward and double down on stupid?

Do you know any convicts or people that have been to prison? I do and most want nothing more than to move on with their lives. They were all there for drugs. These people are no better or worse than anyone else in society with addictions. Unfortunately they chose the wrong addiction. It’s okay to be a fat ass and burden society, or a drunk, or a pill head, but not illegal drugs. That makes you a piece of garbage worth destroying. Have you ever seen the inside of a prison because I doubt you have and I highly suggest you take a field trip or do some reading. Prisons are not a fun place and neither is jail. It is completely dehumanizing and we wonder why people are worse when they come out. You cant make people into animals then get upset when they do animal things. Im not advocating we make it the holiday inn but our current policies are a TOTAL FAILURE. That cannot be denied... period.

Our Founding Fathers did not intend this country to wrap itself and persecute itself through legalism. Attaching a title to someone because of a mistake does not make you a better person. Closed fist types like you seem to be unable to comprehend the current state of our Judicial and Criminal Justice System and the destruction is wrecks on our society. It doesn’t fix anything, unless you want cheap labor, someone for those who are small on the inside to stand on so they feel “big”. Everyone at any time is one step away from prison thanks to incompetence and the crazed and unethical zeal of our current crop of State Prosecutors. “Show me the man and I will show you the crime”.

Honestly, who believes in the sociopathic nonsense you just spewed? Our criminal justice system is completely out of control. In a vast majority of criminal cases, your freedom depends on your financial status and ability to secure proper counsel. While the poor suffer, rich brats like Bush and Obama get away with doing the same illegal and banned activities who’s prohibition they enforce.

It all comes down to these questions. What is the goal of our criminal justice system and is it working? Are people who leave prison being rehabilitated or not? Once a criminal always a criminal is only true when you encourage it. The system needs to be balanced, not the one sided human suffering show you so coldly advocate.
