Literally: Behind bars


What´s behind the massive incarceration rate?

Jaywalkers: Three strikes and you are out


Here are some reasons:

- Harsh laws
The US justice system knows little mercy.

- Much criminality
Thugs everywhere

- Corruption
Companies like CoreCivic operate many prisons for profit purposes

The reason why America has so many prisoners is because Left Wingers are a primitive and backwards people who refuse to behave civilized.
We should deporting our Troglocrat Criminals to North Korea.

People SURVIVE in USA prisons for a LONG TIME----not so

"What´s behind the massive incarceration rate?"

Just like everything else - Money. It was already pretty bad but making it a for-profit system made it the new darling of the 1%. Follow the money.

An aside - Most prisoners are christian/theist. And, most terrorists, foreign or domestic are theist.

Hardly surprising. The US solution (especially right wing solution) is "lock 'em up", I mean, it worked as a slogan for Trump.

"You have mental problems? Well you can just get a job to pay for the medical care because you won't be able to get insurance for that and the govt isn't helping you. Oh, you can't actually work. Well, **** you then, we'll just lock you up, then we don't need to see you"
