It is 100% the mentality of the police (especially here) If you run a stop sign they pull you over and have an attitude like you tried to assisinate the President or something, but if they are in a hurry they can (and will) drive 150 miles an hour on the wrong side of the road and act like you are doing something wring if you are in their way.

Does it just suck living in Mexico? I'm never going to move there, even if there might be some things you can get away with that you can't here. Such a lacadazical (sp?) country it seems.Originally posted by parkerbinkComment

I personally disagree with the death penalty. It lowers us to the level of the criminals and goes against what our justice system stands for, rehabilitation. I think that it would be a far worse punishment to let murderers rot in a cold, damp, and dark cell for the rest of their lives with little nourishment and no contact with the outside world. Either way, this man was a piece of shit and I haven't given his death a second thought.Comment

our criminal justice system doesn't stand for rehabilitation...the tough on crime perspective focuses more on deterrance..Comment

No, police do the dettering. Once a crime is commited it is the job of the judicial system to administer punishment in order to teach a lesson and eventually reintroduce the criminal back into society. AKA rehabilitation. Prisons don't exist just to house people who are going to live their lives behind bars. They exist for rehabilitation.Originally posted by dgspikesComment

You must have no clue what goes on in prison. 99% of the idots in there CANNOT and CHOOSE NOT be rehabilitated. All the while, they have great food, housing, TV's in each cell...Originally posted by h0lmes

Wether they choose to be rehabilitated or not is a different issue. The purpose is rehabilitation. And 99% is a huge exageration.Originally posted by aaron_silvaComment

Sorry. 98.9%
I know plenty of people in Law Enforcement and Corrections (police, parole, and prision systems) that deal with this crap day in and day out. The ones that get out go back to the same stuff that got them in.

lol, that is beside the point. I do agree though that lots of people do end up right back where they were. I personally think there needs to be some reform when it comes to the prison system. They are kicking sex offenders out of jail to make room for people caught with pot. And thats just one example. There are many reasons why our prison system just sucks.Originally posted by aaron_silvaComment

Based on what data? In California Violent offenders do more than 90% of the time they are sentenced to. I spent 2 minutes and found this:Originally posted by h0lmes
In Fiscal Year 2000-01 26,805 offenders were released from Florida’s prisons. The majority of these releases, 16,610 (62.0%), were released by expiration of their sentence, followed by conditional release, 4,708 (17.6%) and expiration of sentence to probation/community control, 4,429 (16.5%). In June 2001 offenders released from Florida’s prisons were serving an average of 82.8% of their court-imposed sentence. It should be noted that offenders with offense dates on or after October 1, 1995 are required to serve a minimum of 85% of their court-imposed sentence prior to their release.
I do not believe any states are releasing violent offenders to make room for non violent ones.

Totally agree. Here is a good story. They try sending violent gang members and murderers to "group sessions". One inmate didnt feel like going to them any more so he cut a rival gang member's throat in the middle of the session. What does he care, he is not getting out anyways.

Do you spend all day on r3v trying to prove people wrong? I'm not gonna bother searching but I know for fact in certain places the drug laws are so tough that violent offenders are being set free to make room for first time drug offenders.Originally posted by parkerbinkBased on what data?
