>> Educate felons when they're in prison That's dangerous. I know people who went to prison. We want educated ex-felons, what you might get is educated felons. >> We know how to reduce recidivism Do we? Again, I know criminals. They're hard core. A guy says he's gonna shoot up meth every day until he dies, he's going to finance that any way he needs to, what is the known way to reduce that recidivism?

I legitimately can't tell if this post was written facetiously, what's your alternative? because the alternative of giving them no education is almost a sure fire guarantee that they'll be ill-equipped to be able to get a job with the potential to become a productive member of society. He's not advocating that we teach lock picking 101 for chr##-sake. But it's OK because you "know criminals" so naturally that extrapolates to all criminals in perpetuity throughout the universe.

  >> the alternative of giving them no education is almost a sure fire guarantee that they'll be ill-equipped to be able to get a job with the potential to become a productive member of society These are my friends that I'm talking about. They don't want to be, will never be, and never could be if they wanted to, productive members of society. What's your alternative? I can sure fire guarantee you that they'll be ill-equipped to be able to get a job with the potential to become a productive member of society, no matter what happens. So what happens to them? Seriously, you're making me defend meth addicts. Christ.
