Believes in prison abolition

Humans don’t belong in cages, she says. Are proponents of prison abolition just naive and sheltered from the evils of the world or do they think it’s perfectly reasonable to have the barbarians of the world running loose to make life harder for the rest of us? People in for drug charges alone should be set free, but that would make only a dent in reducing the prison population. We don’t even do enough as it is to remove violent, sociopathic people from so-called civilized society.

You won't get an argument from me. What's going on today is very, very dangerous. It's like a complete breakdown of a civilized society.

It's important to be fair and just and kind, but not at the expense of working, law abiding citizens. Priorities are completely out of whack in some circles.

I'd lvoe to keep the death penalty, even..yes..even..decapitation (beheadings0 for pedophiles. OR solitary, and I ain't talkin''bout soliataire, the cards game, (whcih I that that I am pretty good at online tee he :D). I mean, OAC wants to just give perks or freedom from prison to inmates--like those last decade 2000a under the Miami-Dade Fla.cuaseway, cmon. Anyone who puts their DICK on a child SHOULD BE either TORTURED or EXECUTED!!
