I can't tell you what's wrong with a whole country and I doubt anyone can, nor that such a statement would be useful. I can tell you what's wrong with your comment:
A personal attack for no apparent reason, and no actual content - that's wrong with it.
I don't see anything controversial about rayiner's point that US voters have often rewarded a "tough on crime" stance with a vote.
- angry_octet 10y agoIt was not well expressed, but it is a valid sentiment. I don't think rayiner's point was as you say, that "tough on crime" is rewarded at the ballot box, but that he thought the approach taken was justified. Many would argue that cruel and inhumane treatment is never justified, and as a long term solution is never effective (as it entrenches poverty and provides continuing motivation for crime).
- rayiner 10y agoYou can understand what causes people to react in a hard situation without considering it justified.
- angry_octet 10y agoApologies, on re-parsing you did not justify it.
