[quote=FlyerInHi][quote=AN]This is why I have no empathy for “people” serving time. I also wonder why we’re spend so much on them (much more than we spend on our kids’ education). I would be perfectly happy to build a 50′ wall square in the middle of the dessert and have then deal with it. Kind of like what the Brits did w/ Australia :-).[/quote]
Until your kids are sent there.
Prosecution is for a single event that is provable to win a conviction.
If your kid is unlucky and gets caught dealing drugs to his buddies, he will be sent there along with the rest of them. The system doesn’t differentiate. I know some parents who are heart broken. Too bad you may say.[/quote]Well, my statement is more directed toward hardcore criminals, not your druggies. If I get my way and legalize drug use, then your argument doesn’t apply.
