How doesn't it follow that there are freer and less free prisons? Didn't you just agree to exactly the opposite?

Sorry, read that backwards.
'it doesnt just follow' ^_^

I hate the mobile version.

and rythm makes another good point.

But how does weekend jail work for murderers and rapists

I keep going back to these two offenses because i find them to be the worst, and that damn near every society will condemn them.


If I may. We have been going off topic a bit... which has been great, and I have enjoyed the discussion greatly! What a challenge trying to answer some of these questions! everyone involved have been wonderful and easy going, thankyou so much for the great answers and questions.

but..if I may....could I make a request?

could we do 2 things on the next few pages of discussion on this thread?

#1 - define a minimalist list of the WORST crimes imaginable.

#2 - define the best way, in your opinion, to deal with them in your current given society. Not an "ideal" society, or what society one would prefer as opposed to what they are living in now. I'm talking about cold hard social reality of where you are right now.

Example: John posts that "Murder, treason, and rape" are the worst crimes imaginable, and that in his current social system he thinks that execution are the best choices for all of them. Then he gives his reasons why he thinks they are the worst crimes and why the punishment fits.

Like I said before, thanks to everyone for participating on this thread. I knew it would be popular, but not THIS popular.
