- Fjolsvith 6y agoProbably still confusing in any place besides mid-to-large urban areas in the US.

- gremlinsinc 6y agoHow about end incarceration for non-violent offenses? Drugs, Shop-lifting, DUI, Robbery (unarmed), Prostitution, Protesting, etc... We have tech to monitor ppl wherever they go, we could easily monitor these people w/ ankle bracelets etc and make sure they're behaving. We could require them to go to therapy and figure out the root of why they do what they do, you know what you'd do w/ a child who's acting out and misbehaving.... Maybe we curtail a lot of issues.... Save prison for pedophiles, rapists, murderers, assaults, etc....
