            People avoid committing crimes because they are afraid of going to prison.

            Lol. Crazy how these things need to be spelled out for you, but I guess that’s where we are now 🤷

                Okay you got me!

                People don’t avoid committing crimes because they’re afraid of going to prison. I was so wrong. Thank you for enlightening me.

                We should never punish criminals. We should only ‘rehabilitate’ them in the most comfortable manner possible. Everyone can be ‘rehabilitated’ and nobody I mean nobody is going to take advantage of lax punishments to commit more crimes!

                You’re so wise and definitely not being taken advantage of.

                If the only thing stopping you from murdering someone is fear of prison you’re a psychopath.

                What about robbery? Lol.

                Don’t argue with edgy teenagers, see his last reply, he is either 12 years old or functionally an idiot, Not worth the time nor energy.

                    Fair enough. The blocking function is just a god send to me. I just take a look at their comment history, if it’s just full of bad takes I decide I don’t need their opinions in my life.

              That’s called Rational Choice Theory and it’s been disproven a bunch already. People dont think about consequences (generally) before committing a crime.
