But even a person who doe snot believe in retribution, should surely want society to be as safe as possible. This means instituting a punishment that is so severe that the criminal will not want to do it again. Prison clearly fails this test, badly.
It is not "propaganda" to be aware of world events, including the fact that ever since WWII, India, Pakistan, and what is now Bangladesh have been at each others' throats almost constantly. As have Muslims against Christians, Hindus against Muslims, Sikhs against everyone, and every other combination you can think of.
So, you support rewarding criminals with free accommodation, free meals, and not having to work, for a few months or a few years, in an institution where they can learn more criminal tricks. Then send them back out to society, while patting yourself on the back?
Agreed. While I like makeup on a woman, I am definitely not a fan of the tarted-up doll-like vision of "beauty" that seems particularly prevalent in the USA.
