Oh hell, let's just kill them after the first strike, then we'd have a
utopia. The sun would shine everyday in WalMart land.
The prison system doesn't consider itself failed, they are making money
hand over fist. Building new prisons every day and employing more and
more guards.
Fact is that the system is clogged up because of the so called "War on
Drugs". Want to change the system? Stop locking up people for smoking &
selling pot.
Wait, what am I thinking? It'd be much more fun just to kill 'em.
