This is such an unfair comment. You're basically saying that once people are out of prison, they should commit to a life of poverty and continued suffering. The whole point of prison is to rehabilitate and make a net-positive contributor to society, which clearly this person has. The man did his time, what else can they do? Also, saying, "getting a diversity department job at MIT" is such a racist thing to say overall.
- jariel 6y agoNo, he's saying we should not elevate a murder to the status of guru. That's different than saying 'he deserves eternal poverty'. Taking a life is a very, very serious thing.
- ajmadesc 6y agoPrison is about what the majority of an electorate think it's about... The sad thing is, _you_ and lots of other compassionate people _think_ prison is about rehabilitation while The majority of the American electorate think it's about punishment.
