Punishment one- Serving time for their crime in the prison.
Punishment two- Not giving them a job because of their criminal history.
punishment three- Not renting them apartment because of their criminal past...list goes on.
Once they have finished serving time for their crime, they should be allowed to work and rent a place to live. I don't understand what do we want these people to do.
We don't want them to commit crime.
We don't want to give them a job.
we don't want them to live near us.
How do we expect them to live their lives.
You point is kind of ridiculous.
It all depends on where they want to work, where they want to live.
"We don't want them to commit crime."
***you are coorect! we don't want them to commit crimes
"We don't want to give them a job"
***depends on the job.
"we don't want them to live near us"
*** true
"How do we expect them to live their lives"
*** personal responsability: THEY should have thought about those consequences prior.
Here's a little bit of hard truth:
Good, honest, hard working people do not want to be around the fuqqn' dregs. its called trust and safety. We want to be able to wake up in the morning, go to work, do what we have to do and come home to family/friends. We should not have to worry about being robbed, beaten, raped, killed. Should we?
Do you have kids, brothers or sisters? How about let a child molester who has just getten out of jail, come stay at your place with you and the kids while he gets on his feet? I bet your tone changes pretty quick.
Are there places for them to live and work? yep. But, as an employer, or leasing agent to use your examples...safety of my employees / tennants preceedes letting a convict work or live there.
BTW: what kind of crime?
Violent crimes? Fuq 'em. They should have been put down
Non-violent crimes? (drug users?) I personally think we waste too much $$ by imprisoning users. Sure. Give a non-violent drug user a 2nd chance.
You want to take a chance to see how prison 'cured' a violent criminal...repeat offender? let them move into your neighborhood, be around you, your friends and family...leave the doors open and unlocked...they can be trusted...they've done their time, bro-
