 | hmm It always saddens me to see such animosity towards other people. Right or wrong. Billions of dollars or 20 dollars. Murderer or crack fiend. It all kind of perpetuates itself and creates these kinds of criminals in the first place.
The punishment should definitely fit the crime. I do think that prison is pointless as long as it burns up taxpayers dollars. I am sick and tired of these quasi-punishments. If you kill another person, you should be sent to the gallows. If you injure someone, you should be maimed. If you steal from others, you should be thrown into poverty and publicly tortured.
The difference between that, and some of the crap that is opined here is that THAT is the way it should be. Not my opinion or hatred speaks any of that. If the punishments could start fitting the crimes we could stop sitting back and giving our 2 cents about what is proper. More importantly, we could stop sitting back and hating other human beings. |
