    We need a total and complete shutdown of prisons until our country’s representatives can figure out what is going on

        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.

            “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?

                Thank you for admitting you were wrong.

                How the fuck should I know? It wasn’t my idea, nor did I endorse it.

                  Alright Copernicus, clearly the suggestion that it was “impossible” related to the unacceptable nature of releasing all criminals without review.

                  Agree that if you enforce childish semantic literalism then yes, I was wrong. But if you have at least two functioning neurons you’d understand quite clearly what was going on.

                  Assuming you do, that means you intended to be petty, and have nothing to add.

                Actually no its not possible to do that because if you do that some of the prisoners will become the new jailers.

                What I’m saying is that it is not actually possible for everyone to be free, because there are some people who aren’t the government who will actively kidnap and imprison other people.
