> From my perspective, you seem to be making a common error that do-gooders make: projecting your own psychological state onto that of the average criminal.

I know many people who have broken the law. Like most people, I break it all the time. The US already has the largest prison population in the world. Clearly that doesn't work, and common sense would agree. Putting people in prison is not just costly, every person has connections to society that get damaged. And that's not even getting into over-armed, sadistic police running around everywhere. The real crime is that my tax dollars are stolen to support this fascist force.

> Consider historical cases, like that of the Comanche - it took many wars to stop them and force them to stop just killing people for sport.

You're talking about the genocide of Indigenous Americans. You know the Comanche aren't the bad guys right?

We're too far apart to continue this conversation.
