If you don't like it, don't commit the crime! Tough love might work two ways, but I think the majority of those who offend again, would of done so anyway, because they're just of that mindset.
This country needs to toughen up!!
Tori for pm!!! :lol
You did not read and comprehend the post you replied to. You CAN end up in prison without DELIBERATELY trying to break the law. Do you understand that (I'm not being sarcastic, no offence meant - I've seen good honest men in prison for accidents or mistakes, or for bad judges)? It does happen to real, nice, ordinary people.
The Danish prison, like paradise island, does have the least rate of prisoners continuing to do crime. They get aprenticeship in learning how to make living leagally, socialization etc. Those are the results of that ongoing experiment. You could also call it facts.
Most things done in a hurry need to be done again - patiently.
