@otto;
While I agree with the philosophy of rehabilitation, I am not sold on the reality.![Frown :( :(](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
That said, I am not a proponent of the death penalty. I do not have a better answer for spending tax dollars on housing violent offenders on life sentences, but I still can't say I am on board with executing human beings, no matter how dangerous or evil.
I may change my heart on this one day. I have changed my stand on many topics as I have gotten older and seen more. But I don't think I will on this.
I think the legal system in the US, however is good. And, sure, it can be better. But I'd rather be tried here than in almost any other country, Canada excepted.
(I also dig Canada's healthcare
).
