I would still rather have them sentenced for the crimes they’ve committed - even if sentenced harshly due to their unrepentant disposition - than for the crimes they may commit in the future.
We are all hypothetical criminals and I would prefer that the state not have that freedom to lock people up.

Not necessarily for climate protests, but in many cases in the US we do this same thing too. https://www.bostoncriminaldefenselawyers.com/threat-to-commit-crime.html https://www.bostoncriminaldefenselawyers.com/threat-to-commi... https://ravellawfirm.com/blog/can-someone-go-to-jail-for-threatening-to-kill-you/ https://ravellawfirm.com/blog/can-someone-go-to-jail-for-thr... https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/373 https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/373
