Life imprisonment in many US prisons is actually worse than killing them quickly, because we believe we must spend a tech worker salary per prisoner per year to make sure they are stripped of dignity and comforts so as to make their imprisonments miserable. Imagine being put in a concrete cage with only dudes, you are literally regimented by force to someone else's early-morning schedule, it takes 3 hours of prison work to buy a bag of chips or make a 10 minute collect phone call to a loved one, your only escape is solitary confinement with nothing but your cloths, hands, and mind, and you are stuck in this building or others like it until you die. Only politicians and judges should face that possibility, only because they wield the flaming sword of the state!

> to make sure they are stripped of dignity and comforts s That's the point. You speak as if we do this mistakenly. > Imagine being put in a concrete cage with only dudes, you are literally regimented by force to someone else's early-morning schedule, Yes. I can imagine this. My imagination acts as a deterrent. I implore you to continue to urge others to imagine it, particularly those at risk of becoming criminals themselves.

  You have sympathy for victims but offer none to offenders, who are often (but not always) victims themselves who have been failed previously. If deterrance worked, why is the US so imprisoned today? The memes surrounding the tree of liberty did not spring up in a vaccuum, groups of men with power have a long sordid history of atrocities. Those men use magick (psychological trickery) to gain your consent to act on others by force, or the consent of others to act on you by force. I am a pro- liberal gun ownership and pro- restricted state power kind of girl (especially re: "War on ___"): I have better chances of survival shooting back at criminals than goons in Fashi garb.
