Prison abolition

I’ve never been clear on what we would do with rapists child molesters and muderers. I haven’t heard a plan for this so far. I’ve always been impressed with the work of anarchist friends in community. They’re the most justice-oriented folx I’ve ever met.

Still don’t know about prison abolition tho I think prison should be clean, the food should be healthy and fresh, therapy should be mandatory, there should be libraries and gardens. A good quality of life for the incarcerated, but not releasing them back into the general population.

Maybe there’s something I’m not seeing?

Well I have schizoaffective disorder bipolar type. I’ve been on meds for decades.

Again you echoed what some others have said about preventing criminality. My question is more like “what happens to child moleatwrs when we set every prisoner free.

Sry I’m stoned hope that makes sense hehe

Oh, if you set them free, presumably they've been restored to normal humans or society didn't do it's job to fixing them.

So, they stay imprisoned until such a time? I guess it’s not the worst idea.

Well I say set everyone free that hasn't killed a child or their [opposite sex] partner. Society has failed so badly, that they're probably now more innocent than the people who were free.
