You don’t end up in prison in this country by accident. You really have to work hard at it...be a repeat offender/career criminal with zero intention of ever being a productive member of society. Stuff gets pled down like crazy, prison time is converted into probation, early parole...etc.
Its hard to get into prison. If somebody puts in the effort, why spring them out early?
I don’t agree at all. I hear all the time of ridiculous laws and punishments.
