I still say let em rot! why let them take the easy way out and have society pay up the butt for it?
Sparkplug: Sounds like you were on the inside of the system looking out. Im from teh outside looking in if you know what i mean. I find it funny though that we agree on a lot of the same standpoints.
Im not a liberal, im a conservative. But lets be real people. You cant wish someone to do something you cant wish to do yourself. Death Penalty, i dont want to flip the switch. Only time i will is if its for someone's life or limb. Other than that i think its best to let them sit in jail knowing they have 40,60, 80+ more years of their life in this 8x8 concrete block.
Oh and i agree, eff the three strikes law! It is the single biggest contributer to prison overcrowding and the same reason why when you catch a burglar breaking into houses, the jail won't take him. So for weeks on end you have been arresting a guy, taking him to jail, and he gets kicked back out due to overcrowding. He knows they cant to do anything to him for a while so why stop?
