Cool so should the default solution for every fucking problem be the same solution we apply to a guy that cracked someone's skull open with a hammer?

I'm not saying this guy doesn't deserve to be punished. I'm saying prison shouldn't be the default solution for everything. People like you who defend the prison industrial complex are the reason it still exists. You are using your emotional reaction to one incident to justify a human rights crisis in your fucking backyard and it's lazy and pathetic. Be a better person.

Got it, thank you for clarifying.

It wasn't deliberate. I said, "the default setting should not be prison" and you replied "Yes, that is what the default should be." so I read it as contrary. So I appreciate your response

Default setting should be prison? For marijuana possession?

For fucking getting an abortion???

Prison should not be the default setting for anything my dude.

correct but we use the "attempted murder solution" on everything, which is the problem.

stop saying "prison should exist because of this one case"

there will always be extreme cases that need to be handled differently from the default setting. but the default setting should not be prison, it should be rehabilitation.
