[quote=Anonymous][quote]It isn't about deterring criminals with the threat of a long sentence when they have the gun in their hand. It's about taking career criminals off the streets, at least until they are elderly and pose relatively little threat.[/quote] To add, when a man goes to prison without parole for 35 years for a violent gun conviction, he is not able to make any more babies for 35 years and perpetuate that part of the cycle. This is true regardless of the skin color of the man, btw. It applies to white meth dealers in the Ohio River Valley. People always decry the fatherless kids whose sperm providers are locked up and how this "destabilizes communities" and "perpetuates poverty." They never also discuss in the same breath that Locked Up Pete 1) was not providing for [i]the tots he already had [/i]in that community, and 2) was acting in a manner that "destabilizes" his neighborhood more than any cop ever could. [/quote]
