Originally posted by The Relentless I don't think correctional facilities need to be any "tougher" than they already are. I spent almost two months in jail just last year. Jail is one of the worst places I have ever been, and it almost destroyed me in spirit. In case you're wondering, I spent that time in jail because I was caught trying to steal two hardcover books. |
I think you were more a victim of bureaucracy than anything else, the judicial system also needs a huge overhaul.
I still can't understand why people haven't cottoned on to this, the US president was impeached for telling a lie but Bush Snr got off scot free on war crimes convictions..did this not make anyone think that the judicial system was a bit fucked up?
I really don't think you should have been imprisoned for what you did, whatever happened to "the punishment should fit the crime"?
Personally, if I was the judge I would have made you work in the book store for two months on half normal wages.
