apparently That Guy has only reads the parts of my post that allow him
to jump up on a moral pedastal and look down from on high on someone
who may have a more redical point of view. i have suggested that the
prison system certainly needs reform and tho That Guy may be talking
about "penalties" ... i am not. punshiment and the threat thereof
obviously has not stopped crime. imprisonment, in fact, not meant to
stop crime but only to punish and warehouse those who commit crimes for
some period of time. after that period of time the criminal is set
free, meaner and more adept at crime than he/she was before they went
in. i suggest that criminality is a symptom of a deeper problem within
the individual and within society. i suggest that crime be looked upon
as a symptom and the individual be helped to discover and heal that
deeper problem that causes the criminal behavior. prisons, IMO, should
be replaced with psychiatric care faculties and inmates be given a
chance at a real life instead of just punished. pyschiatric treatment,
appropriate meds, education and after release housing, job placement
and psychiatric follow up and counciling. the prisons system houses
large numbers of people who should be in mental institutions as it is
and these people get no treatment and no therapy. their
mental/emotional problems are made worse by their confinement in the
hostile prison environment and their proclivity for violence escalates
with every punishment. perhaps with an eye looking more towards rehab
then towards punishment the revolving door wouldnt spin so fast. but
That Guy hasnt bothered to read these particulars of my posts or if he
does he accuses me of sarcasm and of lieing. appparently That Guy
thinks the way the privatized prison industry keeps that revolving door
spinning with the same inmates incarerated again and again is a good
idea. well... the prison contruction bizness is booming and bail
bondsmen and lawyers are having a field day but more funding is spent
on prisons than on schools and thats a sad commentary for any country.
and apparently That Guy thinks its okay that the prison industry sets
dangerous sexual predators loose into our neighborhoods every day, sick
baby rapers free to roam around doing horrendous damage as they please
to the innocent until they get caught AGAIN. these insane people are
set free because their punishment is done, their time is served but
nothing is done to change what they are. do you understand WHAT they
are?! but i suppose i must be morally corrupt because i think its
stupid, dangerous and cruel to keep the violently insane alive, that i
think those monsters that rape, torture, mutilate and revele in blood
and killing should be euthanized as any rabid dog would be. i'm the
one guilty of murderous intent because i think the funds spent on
building and maintaining expensive maximum security prisons to
warehouse people who will never again see the light of day or
contribute in anyway to society would be better spent on healing the
curable. okay, i'm a bad person ... a very bad person ... evil evil me
.... none the less ... if i ever caught some pervert trying stick it to
a child i'd blow his poor insane brains out. and then i'd cry ...
just like i cry when i have to dispatch some water moc thats found a
sunning spot on my front doorstep. i dont hate the water moc. i dont
want to kill the water moc. but the water moc is very dangerous,
aggressive and deadly poisonous to me and mine and ya gotta do what ya
gotta do.
anyway That Guy ... have a good time up there in your ivory tower of
ultimate truth and supreme morality. how funny tho, that you defend
the rights of torturing murderers and sympathize with baby rapers but
condemn me as a murderer without a trial, without even considering the
bulk of my evidense. i guess a single and simple minded version of
what you think i mean by what i say is enough to convict.
