Well, I can agree with a fair bit of that, it's just that things like this tend to get taken too far. You see, my own mother died as the victim in an unspeakable manner. In my own home. When I was a teenager. I've seen more than a few people who think that letting the man who did that out of prison is somehow a good idea. I simply cannot agree with that under any circumstance.
But yes, prison culture is itself dangerous and needs to be disrupted. I'm fine with things like so-called creative sentencing and diversion to try to keep people out of the system to begin with. It's just that some things are the thin end of the wedge.
There's some minority, like Dahmer, who simply need to be contained. Period. There is some core group of utterly unrepentant people who have done things too terrible to be permitted freedom again.
I almost never see anyone acknowledge that part of the problem and it's frustrating given what I've lived through.
