punishment is essentialy revenge, it is to inflict pain on the offender for reasons of revenge.
correctio is what a modern justice system should work on, it should work on determening the reason why crime happens and thereby institute measures which insure that they dont happen again.
Quote:You are pro-choice, can you explain why?
ask a rape victim and someone who may die during birth and ask yourself if you have the right to determine what women should do with their vaginas.
But again, I'm asking why murderers or rapists should be given a second chance?
I believe in abortion in cases of rape and if there is a danger to a woman's life.
