You can use this “trust me bro” nonsense but it is obvious to anyone that can think clearly that the threat of prison time deters crime. It is not 100% effective, obviously but it deters potential criminals. People do make risk based decisions based on the possibility of getting caught and facing prison. I don’t know what it says that you think this obvious fact is some kind hand waving.
