exactly...
the justice system is so fucked up..
the point is to fill up prisons....
when child molesters are getting off...
actually, i have to agree that a change to the law is in order
i don't believe in prisons
but my solution isn't to get rid of the laws, just change the punishments
caning like they do in Singapore comes to mind
i would sentence you to 50 lashes with the cane vs. the prison time you are going to do
in prison, you are just going to become a more hard core criminal/drug addict than you are now. you'll lose your family, so when you get out in a few years, you'll have nothing. then you won't have a reason not to re-offend, and you'll end up back in prison within 2 months of being released
basically you are going to spend the rest of your life in prison
anybody here tell me it isn't a waste of OUR money to keep zaneypoo in prison for the rest of his life? no one?
they need to reinstate corporeal punishments, long term incarceration in its current form is WORTHLESS, it just breeds worse criminals
make more crimes capital crimes (death) and the lesser crimes, you get caned or put on the stocks in the town square or branded on your forehead, etc etc
prisons are a failed experiment and the sooner society realizes that , the sooner we can fix it
