RE: How Effective is Our Prison System?

in #life7 years ago

People relatively well off can afford to hire lawyers to give them advice on what rules not to break. The rest of us are on our own and have to learn trial and error. Depending on who were are, where we live, what we look like, we might get a slap on the wrist or the harsh treatment.

Sort:  

True but ai don't think no that's why rich people don't go to jail. I don't think they get advice on how not to break rules but more of don't do this or that because the punishment isn't harsh which leads them to not risk their lives for a certain reward. For the poor the do not have to He money to always color in the lines. If you are hungry even the Bible says it isn't not stealing if you are starving, it is our nature. We should not punish those who do 'crime' to merely survive.

Well said. Don't forget in Los Angeles the biggest gangsters are the cops and they purposefully inject drugs in the getthos.
