Prisoners should be punished. Wait I forgot they are all innocent poor souls like soyamen here like to imagine them
Their punishment is, as decided by law, being separated from society, family, friends, their hobbies and comfort while still getting to live d dignified human beings.
Not everyone in prison is a murderer or rapist, and even many of those get reformed. So please think of that before you go and approve of their exploitation.
Jail is a terrible idea and is inherently inhumane. We can punish people in better ways. Jail never should have been allowed to become a thing.
You're right and wrong. For nonviolent offenses you're right. For offenses where there actually isn't a victim (drugs, prostitution, etc) you're definitely right. But for violent offenders, rapists, murderers, chomos, I don't agree. I don't want them near me and honestly I don't care to rehabilitate them. If they're guilty beyond a doubt, for those crimes, might be better to take them behind the chemical shed and put a bullet in their head. But, we can be convinced of guilt and be wrong, so jail is a good compromise.
Jail is much less humane than the death penalty, even for someone wrongfully convicted imo.
Prostitution doesn't have victims?
Excuse me what
"Bodily autonomy" means what it says on the box.
Lmao what a clown
Why?
Prison should be for rehabilitation, and when necessary to protect society, but it should not be punishment.
