I am so tired of reading about bleeding heart judges allowing criminals to escape with piddling little sentences because 'jail would interfere with their (the crims) 'rehabilitation'.
Gadzooks! It is only during the last 50 years that the 'social sciences' (oxymoron) have pontificated about incarceration being for rehabilitation. Before that jail was always seen as a consequence of criminal behaviour. You break the law, you lose your freedom...if jail thereafter offers some rehabilitation in order to assist the criminal in re-entering the workforce and society, that's well and good but it is not the reason for being put away in the first place.
Our brave new other world!
"Since it is so likely that children will meet cruel enemies, let them at least have heard of brave knights and heroic courage.” C. S. Lewis
