It depends where you live. In some states they release people from prison that absolutely should not be, and in others they lock up people for things like smoking marijuana. We desperately need to stop criminalizing recreational drugs or drug addiction though unless there are other criminal activity alongside it though, and focus on rehabilitation and healthcare.
Watch: as soon as one “immigrant” let out early does so much as jaywalk, the Tories will be all over it as if it is the end of the world and labor will backpettle immediately as if they don’t have 5 years of guaranteed rule.
how is the uk’s prisoner rehab program? because i know that policy in the us would never work because our prisons are primarily for punishment and retribution and when people are let out they are left hanging in the wind in a society who treats them less than human waste.
Completely broken - the state of the entire system was recently described as a crisis and unsustainable
