      I’m going to upvote you, because I like your anger. But that would probably be a terrible idea to allow convicted killers and rapists out on the street who have not been rehabilitated.

      I wouldn’t argue with the possibility of temporarily releasing nonviolent criminals.

        Every prison should be replaced with facilities for drug treatment, support groups, and job training. Give those people something to do and they won’t be a threat to anyone, and that burden on society will disappear in a couple generations because they’re not passing it on to their offspring.

        But of course that doesn’t directly make money for the people who own the system, so good luck convincing the folks in charge to make a change.

        Why?

        They can’t stop us all. The only thing standing in the way of good is people who consider themselves good but stand by doing nothing while witnessing evil.

          Wut

          Releasing all prisoners at once is simply the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard.

            “Dumbest thing [you] ever heard” is entirely different from “completely impossible,” you know.

              Obviously it’s “possible” to unlock all the doors and walk away.

              Whatcha gonna do with all the actual, legitimate violent criminals who just got dumped back into society all at once?
