They still have food stamps?You can do that with food stamps?!
In my lifetime we have never executed nearly as many as should be executed. The paltry numbers on death row is a poor indicator of the heinous capital crimes that only garner a life sentence. Whlle few murderers believe they will be caught few believe they will face the death penalty if caught. We need to execute killers, career criminals, and others who actually deserve it. We can then gauge the results and make other adjustments. Others should be sentenced to rehabilitation, with no time limit.So higher taxes to build more prisons, and even higher taxes to staff and manage them, you know feed the prisoners, medical care, that sort of thing.
That is the technique we’ve used since the 1980’s, and it’s been working so well. Not.
But hey, we haven’t gone far enough. That’s all. We just need to keep doubling down until we finally have everyone in prison, and then, thank God, we would have ended crime.
Conservatives rightly mock Socialists when the Socialists are unable to point to a single successful Socialist/Communist nation in history. The asinine argument of we just need to do it more, bigger, or whatever, is mocked. Properly mocked in my opinion. It hasn’t worked, it can’t work.
But Conservatives are just as idiotic and wedded to their beliefs as Socialists, and threads like this prove it. Sure tough on crime hasn’t worked. But we’ll get even tougher. Unless we’re talking about the January 6th Coup Participants, and then we need to stop harassing good people. Or something.
We're the greatest nation on Earth. We're doing alright. Improvements can definitely be made though.Actually we need better laws. The ones we have now don't seem to be working.
At the risk of getting overly serious, I will address the problem along the lines of reason, common sense and minimal Constitutional demands.Build more prisons.
That's because the wrong people were put in prison.The War on Drugs increased our prison population from 200,000 to 1.5 million
It is not working
Share with us, how well is turning criminals loose with no bail and out of prison helping out the country. What is happening to the crime rate in those cities?
Given the option, citizens would prefer higher taxes as opposed to this.
But none of these fine folks should be in prison.
How is this be a good thing?
Got it!
We could use retired cruise liners and other large craft for prison ships. Drift the ship in a region with fair weather, thus little fuel needed for propulsion or temperature control. All maintenance would be done by prisoners. Eat from the sea as well.Empty all the prisons one by one onto commandeered cruise ships and send the prisoners back to Africa.
Put everyone caught in crime and quickly tried and convicted (that night or next day) onto the Back to Africa cruises. All DNA cataloged and warned of instant execution if they are found back here on American soil. Close all prisons, keep sending the criminals to Africa.
The whole prison idea is recent and it was a very, very bad idea.
Both dealers and users should be incarcerated; dealers to prison, users to secure treatment facilities.Lets see…
The point is
The taxpayer is spending billions a year to house non violent offenders.
End the mandatory sentencing and find other means to punish drug offenders
Africa doesn't want them. Africans here have little to do with American blacks.Why is it racist to send them to Africa? Isn't that where Blacks come from? Where we all come from? I see it more like severe punishment, because most people would prefer to stay in jail in the US than be deported to Africa.
Explain, presuming you can find clever little pictures, the low recidivism rate in Norway.
Here, I’ll post a video, since reading this report probably isn’t your style.
Here’s the video.
Now, here’s the dirty little secret you don’t want to admit. People become what they are treated like. Civilians join the military, and from the get go they are treated like Soldiers, Sailors, Marines, Airmen. They become that because they are treated like that. The language is used. It isn’t a floor, it’s a deck. It isn’t a wall, it’s a bulkhead. It isn’t a hat, it’s a cover.
So you throw a person who is a first offender into a prison, a hole, with horrible food, and you think you’re training him to hate, and avoid future prison possibilities. But you’re training him to be an animal, and that is why our recidivism rate is over 60% nationally.
Compare and contrast with Norway, which has a recidivism rate of 20%. So if we change our approach we stand a fair chance of lowering the rate of people reoffending. We could cut the prison population by a million in the first couple years, a million fewer prisoners. A million fewer people to feed, and house.
Instead of building new prisons, why not change our approach, because the current system of warehousing the animals isn’t doing anything but breeding more animals.
Yeah, because there's no difference between Norwegians and Americans.
Fucking stupid!
LOLBoth dealers and users should be incarcerated; dealers to prison, users to secure treatment facilities.
Fuck are you ever a noob. Fully vaxxed people can get covid, infect others with covid and die of covid, and be harmed by all the shots. Maybe you should hide out in your basement forever and get off the internet. That way you won't keep shitting your pants and we won't be able to hear you whining.Because as long as we have a large percentage of the population (currently 35 percent) who are unvaccinated, COVID has a vulnerable population to infect and mutate.
Frankly, after over two years of COVID, I am getting tired of it. The fact that we have a large percentage of the population unwilling to do anything will ensure COVID remains with us indefinitely
Then how about they stay at your house, noob.Why do you want to pay to keep nonviolent prisoners locked up
Think about a vacuous tautology?people are people. That was a message that Reagan got right. He liked the Russian people and hated their government. He believed correctly that the Russians wanted freedom.
Are people born to be Firemen? No. They’re trained. Are people born to be Marines? They are trained and treated like Marines.
think about it.
Who says anyone has to care about what Africa wants? Start deporting Blacks back there and you'll see crime go down. Or don't you want that?Africa doesn't want them. Africans here have little to do with American blacks.
So that means they know how to rehabilitate felons. Good.But Australia has a lower crime rate than we do.

Perhaps we should look at nations that have a low Recidivism rate. You know, how they keep people from reoffending.
