This is why punitive justice is pointless. We need to rehabilitate criminals, not just warehouse them. Obviously some criminals are harder to rehabilitate and reintroduce into society, but the vast majority of these people are not sociopaths
So your argument is that we should make state sanctioned murder faster and have fewer appeals? Perhaps those low quality Police officers should just be empowered to.... oh fuck we already did that
Ignoring that... The point is to be a deterrent. The fact that people still commit capital crimes shows that it's not. Nobody commits a crime thinking they will be punished
That's weird, I get windchimes
