    Jail is a terrible idea and is inherently inhumane. We can punish people in better ways. Jail never should have been allowed to become a thing.

      You’re right and wrong. For nonviolent offenses you’re right. For offenses where there actually isn’t a victim (drugs, prostitution, etc) you’re definitely right. But for violent offenders, rapists, murderers, chomos, I don’t agree. I don’t want them near me and honestly I don’t care to rehabilitate them. If they’re guilty beyond a doubt, for those crimes, might be better to take them behind the chemical shed and put a bullet in their head. But, we can be convinced of guilt and be wrong, so jail is a good compromise.
