Just lock them up

 


Based and jolly heretic argues that prison works. The point of prison isn´t to "reform" the criminals. It´s to lock them up and get them off the streets so the rest of us can stay safe. The reason? Many criminals are *genetically* primed for such behavior, and so obviously can´t be "reformed". Dutton´s hard line on crime has recently been confirmed in El Salvador, of all places.

But...

What about, say, corrupted politicians, genocidal colonialists or profit-hungry capitalist sharks? Or the odd pro-Russian quasi-populist? Shouldn´t they be locked up too? After all, they too seem rather incorrigible, wouldn´t you say?
