ditto... and thank god i live in a country where cops have to answer to higher authorities and are not above the law. the sob exonorated the 12 guards who murdered that young inmate (caught on video, the fatass guard who hid behind the 5th amendment, missing evidence, etc.), some of the guards and dictator joe would be incarcerated here, getting a taste of their own medicine. |

3.000.000 people with an overall of 750.000 people in their jail system, and still not thinking you\'re doing something wrong? in what way you help society with sentencing someone for the possession of 8/100.000 of a gram? it just makes me glad being dutch, i guess... |

huh? were you even listening to the documentary? they clearly state there is no decrease in crime rate due to this approach. they also clearly state the recidive figure is 60%. which is huge. no teaching, no counseling, nothing to motivate people to improve their lives instead of treating them like shit. like the guy getting arrested over and over again for the same tickets, which he can't afford to pay. what help is it to lock him up in such a shithole? i really don't see your point. if you look at statistics it becomes clear repression only makes a problem worse. the documentary says 70% of all prisoners is drug-related. the netherlands, on the other hand, have one of the lowest figure of heroin addicts, even though (or because of?) our liberal soft drug policy. teaching, instead of repression... our prisoners might be more expensive, but at least we have a lot less of them. and i'd say our society is less dysfunctional than the usa's :d of course, we don't have all the answers, but this guy / swine / nazi (whichever one is most appropriate) definately hasn't. but then again, that comes from a guy which doesn't understand why one would make nearly harmless drugs illegal, and on the other hand would legalise firearms which only exist to harm one another. |

sorry mate but that's rubbish. people commit crime because they have to. mostly for drugs but because of poverty as well. it might work to stop a little white collar crime, but 90% of those people don't get caught. |
