Well, I don't really disagree. My reasoning is for the purpose of finding the solution. I haven't suggested leniency or something based on any kind of deservedness, but actually solving the problem. Crime needs to be addressed, but that doesn't mean that it's a good idea to address it incorrectly. The way society addresses crime is pretty pathologically bad, that was more what I'm referring to.

For example, my solution to child molesters is: 1) reform to acceptable levels based on good data, but if this is not possible then 2) hang them in town square. The current approach is fucking awful garbage that does stuff like provoke repeat offense or use retarded "justice" tactics that are really just "two wrongs make a right" irrational punishments
