Most of them should never have been put in the carceral system in the first place.
That's avoiding the question and changing the subject though. I don't disagree with you on this point. But many of them do deserve to be there, my friend included, so how do you propose they're dealt with given the limitations you've placed on the system? What does your prison look like?
Edit: I just realized you're not the person who I was replying to originally, so I apologize for saying "you said".
Given your history, I have my doubts that your friend is real, and one doesn’t need a holistic crime reduction plan in order to be anti-slavery.
You know nothing about me, let alone "my history". That's also what I suspected, you have no proposed solutions, only complaints. You can't support your own argument, so instead you attacked me. I'm not pro-slavery, dufus, I'm acknowledging that fire camp is a good program for dealing with criminals, many of whom have hurt people and society, while also providing them with an opportunity to learn job skills, and work outside. For the record I'm opposed to the vast majority of the US prison system, especially the length of confinement.
That’s good to hear.
