what good does it do to punish you? it's doesn't get my house back
This is a somewhat selfish take, and although I don’t agree with a punitive justice system as I believe reform will lower the victims of crime more than punishing someone, as you should be thinking about the larger society and how me being off the streets means I can’t blow up someone else’s house. Sure it doesn’t get your house or family back, but it is better for society.
I think a society that cages people is bad. it's a bad thing to put people in cages.
