I don't have a link but it shouldn't be difficult to find. Apparently here in Texas we're halting executions because some dipshit judge decided to rule lethal injection as "cruel & unusual punishment". WTF is cruel & unusual about it!!??

do you not understand that its been shown that more progressive detentions/prisons have less of the same people coming back. not dissappearing off the planet but because they arent being arrested/going to court

so an actual implemented rehabilitation/job work orientated prison system deters crime and repeat offenders more than putting people under lock and key 24/7 with assault rifles. this is common sense for most people

how can you make this statement/comparison?? we do not currently put people under lock and key 24/7 with assault rifles. we give them their own space and cable TV.

No I am fully aware of the statistics I've provided. I know that two to three times the homicide rate as most industrialized countries is a big deal and is significant.

So what is a significant homicide rate? You keep bypassing this, and I have an idea of why this is....

well look at the percentages and decide... to me a change from 0.0045% to 0.0023% isn't much. if it went up an order of magnitude, say to 0.045% then yeah that's much more significant. but they don't there's not some country in that list where you go in and have a 10x greater chance of being murdered.
