Re: Idiotic Socialist ideas
"Rehabilitation or corrections just does not work, it only encourages additional violations of the criminal code, ie they return to a life of crime upon their release, and no amount of schools, holding of hands and singing is going to change that, these people are pre-disposed towards criminal behavior and violence from the get go."
Interesting that this world renowned criminologist would make such statements. First of all in the years 1978-1982 i was a juvenile delinquent. I wound up in a reformatory for boys 3 years where i was offered a host of rehabilitation services like word processing, and college credits. I took full advantage and upon my release i continued my education and never looked back until i got my masters degree. I have been gainfully employed the last 20 years paying taxes and bills like the criminologist on this forum. I am sure he did bad things when he was younger he just did not get caught. Rehabilitation does work. I agree that Sexual predators cannot be rehabbed and should be executed. By using his logic though he wants to execute any criminal no matter what the offense. This country is supposed to be a forgiving Christian society. Did he ever go to sunday school? Morons like him only focus on the Child Molesters and career criminals and try to lump all people in jail into these groups. Thats not fair. I am living proof tha rehabilitation does work. And there are many more like me.. |
