    Can anyone please point out why there exists such a contradiction?

    Government is a monopoly of force and it can kill people, yet it criminalizes individuals for essentially the same thing? Why do we apply one set of morals to one part of society, and not the other? This is ipso facto tyranny, and this is why the government has got to go.

    A State that can willfully bomb innocent people, expose its own soldiers to depleted uraniaum, leave cluster bombs for little Iraqi kids to blow up on, and has willfully bombed and killed, and supported sanctions that have killed Iraqis, not to mention acts of aggression in other parts of the world, whay will its subjects learn of this? Is it any wonder the U.S. has a high crime rate, along with all the other reasons?

    xxxx the bill and xxxx Congress hypocritical double standard. Punishment is the way to go for criminals, but we mustn't begin with the petty criminals, begin with the heads of State that stupid masses vote into office.

            He can't. Since his inception here, all he is capable of are one-liners. The few threads he has managed to make have been as interesting and stimulating as looking at an eggplant.

                Re: Prison rape bill and American attitudes regarding criminals

                Originally posted by whitelotus Congress is preparing to pass a bill designed to protect prison inmates from rape and other forms of violence while in prison. I think this is something that has needed addressing for a very long time and something that most Americans have been willing to tolerate. Could this bill be the beggining of a shift in American attitudes of how we treat criminals?

                For the last 150 years or so the American judicial system has concentrated on punishment instead of rehabilitation. Could this be the beggining of a change?
                Mmmm... Yes, i agree with that "bill".
                But it has to be coherent. Some states in america still obey to the death penality.

                Crimes are the direct reflect of society's unability to manage (i don't think it's the exact word i want to use) people. What is underlying this is the idea of punishment. It is the tricky problem, since it never has been resolved (church & inquisition, states & dealth penality)
                Is there any other kind of punishment ? Is the idea of punishing the best to solve criminality problem ?

                  Originally posted by whitelotus i was talking about small crimes, those who arent as serious as the ones you listed above.

                  i think thats what the bill is about as well.

                  plus, what do you think about the prison rape thing ?
                  no one answered that so far.
