It’s not unjust. People with these records of several crimes almost always go on to victimize others. Why should law abiding society have to take on that risk?

- chris_wot 2y agoBecause the basis of Western democractic justice systems are that we punish people for the crime they have committed, not the crimes we think they will commit. If we apply this standard for punishment, then anyone (including yourself) could be placed in jail. And then people like you could then say with conviction that you were likely to be a bad person and you deserved it.
