The goal isn't to reintegrate, it's to get revenge and make victims and communities feel better about themselves for it.
If they go back into the system after release, then they clearly deserve more punishment.
There is zero tolerance or compassion in such a system so these people are ripe for all kinds of abuse. Rape, for example, is just something to laugh about in that context.
- gtrfreewifi 8y agoTruth to be told, most people who end up in prison for violence/gang/drugdealing stuff are just not worth much pity. Cold hearted criminals just love to abuse the trust of the average people, this has been seen like a million times already. Alternatively we can label them as animals not responsible for their actions.
- ausbah 8y agoThat’s a straw man if I’ve ever see one. Regardless of their actions or how people view them, they’re still human beings with rights the should be protected like anyone else’s.
- ljm 8y agoFurther more, this lack of concern is probably what encourages them back into the life of crime. What else do you do when society is hell-bent on shunning you?
- ficklepickle 8y agoExactly. Shunning encourages antisocial behaviour. If we actually want to break the cycle, we need to seriously reduce adverse childhood experiences.
- hutzlibu 8y ago"drugdealing" "just not worth much pity" Sure thing. Those cold hearted pushers who make people addicted to the killerdrug marijuhana for example, do not deserve the smallest pitty. Put them all in a dark hole where no sun shines, serves them right.
