Should the law just punish the hell out of people or attempt to rehabilitate them? In general, it looks like society has determined the former. While it feels good, you do sometimes have to wonder where it’s all heading. Put messed up people in dangerous hellholes where they can fester and become much more vicious, then let em out again. Rinse and repeat. I’m not saying forgive everything, I’m not saying I know any better than anyone else, and I’m not saying that’s not an exceptionally creepy weird crime. Just, well, we shouldn’t pretend we’re actually going to discourage future bad acts.
