@HonestDiscussioner How do you send pms? Can you just email me at godspianist4life at yahoo dot com? This youtube thing is confusing.

[HonestDiscussioner]

@nebulousJames12345 You should have youtube set to send you a message to you when you a reply or PM. Right now, just look at the top where your name is next to "sign out", click on your name and then select "inbox".

[nebulousJames12345]

@HonestDiscussioner Gosh darn it. I haven't done much of this youtube threading. And I just realized that I have been missing many of your comments. To the root thing. I want to destroy the root and any other roots in the area. We get wrongly accused because our justice system is lazy and not educated enough. I am talking about a change that will permanently solve our problems, but will most likely never happen because humans are selfish.

@nebulousJames12345 " I want to destroy the root and any other roots in the area."

But you are not. You are going after the stem. If you don't try decrease the recidivism rate you only incur more cost and more crime. I will send you a PM with statistics that show I am right.

@nebulousJames12345 Don't you see that we run on fear and unfortunately always will. It is the way superiors work. Of course it is going to suck for the first criminals who are sent to jail. but it makes people better..

1) It puts good use to our police force

2) Criminals will STOP COMMITTING CRIMES BECAUSE OF FEAR OF JUSTICE(even petty) -Ever see Minority Report? Something like that

3) Those who continue to commit crimes will be un-rational beings, and will STAY in jail

THEREFORE BETTER WORLD.

@HonestDiscussioner "When you treat someone like a criminal, that is how they behave" - What YOU are saying is that we SHOULDN'T treat them like criminals(which they have been proved to be) and just HOPE they don't do it again(as evidence suggests they will do it again), all because they have gone through rehabilitation. Though I have shown the realities of rehabilitation and how inefficient for our PLANET and HUMAN SURVIVAL rehabilitation would be.

@nebulousJames12345 " I believe he shouldn't have gotten out of jail if he killed someone. And I think that those petty crimes such as stealing from Wal-mart, should be dealt with more harshly. "

Great. You do realize that will have the opposite effect of that which you intended, right? When you treat someone like a criminal, that is how they behave. I don't know how many times I have to say this, but what you are saying we should do causes more problems than it solves.

[nebulousJames12345]

@HonestDiscussioner To the first time offender killing thing. I think that police officers should be more focused on these people for a LONG time after they get out of jail or after the crime has been committed rather than ...what they do now...

@HonestDiscussioner "I'm talking counselors" - I'm talking about getting rid of the (potential) demand for counselors. People will go to other professions. I'm basically saying ANYthing other than counselors will help society.

[nebulousJames12345]

@HonestDiscussioner "You are doing is ENSURING people commit crime" - no...I am taking that option away. If they commit crime, they stay in jail. Unable to get out and do it again.
