Whipping, public beatings/humiliation, etc. is how you deter crime. How many people would be drinking and driving if they had to walk around for a
year wearing a sign that stated their crime? |
So, what is the difference in rehabilitation and punishment? I think people that say this should have to spend at least a week in jail. This whole
generalization that all criminals are rapists and child molesters is beyond insane. I love how people fall over each other yelling "Kill the rapists &
child molesters" as if anyone think's it's right. Wow, you have common sense, congratulations! Those people have deep seeded problems and do need to
be locked up for good. There are alot of shitbags in prison who never deserve to see the light of day but guess what? There are alot of good people in
there too. People who end up getting fucked over on a case because they don't have the money to have decent counsel or commiting "crimes" that do not
harm anyone but themselves. They go in decent human beings and prison turns them into something very ugly. Alot of people grow up fucked up and really
don't know any better. When crime is all around you, you become conditioned to it. While a person's background does have a factor on how one grows up
and deals with situations, it is not an excuse. It's easy to throw out these ideas and generalizations when you're not directly connected to it. To
each their own and this is just my opinion.
By the way, I love criminals. |
