Your argument is that because in your opinion we don't arrest enough white color criminals that we shouldn't bother with violent criminals? I don't understand how these are related? This isn't a trade or a negotiation.
Locking up violent criminals and their affiliates for extended periods of time works. We give way too many chances to people today.
- Draiken 3y agoNever said that. My sarcastic rant was there because locking people up is simply not a good enough solution. I can guarantee you the vast majority of people in prison can be reformed and reintegrated. But most prison systems don't want that. They work towards punishment/revenge, and as a bonus, give out slave labor for dirty companies. Suggesting "locking more people up" is a good solution is so bad that it's laughable in my view. It's so short-sighted and simplistic that it's not worth arguing about. Locking more people up translates to locking more poor people up, for the crime of being poor. I even added a "/s" to make it clear I was being ironic, but clearly that didn't work as I intended.
