Anyone see a common thread to Hogg’s rap sheet?
There’s a very small percentage of the population that is highly aggressive. According to Jordon Peterson, this is behavior that goes back to early childhood. Peterson’s perspective isn’t some leftist mantra of toxic masculinity, so don’t get the wrong idea. Peterson basically says there is no successful method to change highly aggressive personalities. I draw from that these people cannot be reformed in prison. There is a very high probability that when released from prison they will offend again. The one thing that does seem to work is simply getting too old to be violent.
Seems like violent offenders need first sentences that are long enough for them to get too old to be violent.
“...there is no successful method to change highly aggressive personalities.”
I understand your point, but intense aggression can be changed to eternal calm in less than a minute.
Society must choose whether to protect victims or the “rights” of criminals to run loose victimizing the innocent. Most people are either comprehensively ignorant that this is choice our governments have made, or dream that we can have both. Does the price of dealing with it exceed what people are willing to pay, or does “democatic” government defy the desires of the people?
A bullet in the nape of the neck and creatures like this are no longer a problem.
