I'm interested to know how many antis on this board are simply focused on the issue of the death penalty and how many genuinely care about prison reform and the rights of inmates.
I am a case by case pro and make no bones about my position. However, I've noticed a staggering lack of sympathy for prisoners among too many antis on a whole range of boards.
So far PTO is the ONLY online forum I belong to that is 100% behind the rights of prisoners.
So, my dear anti friends, do you support alternatives to prison where possible? Do you support greater rights for prisoners? Shorter sentences for most non-violent crimes? Maximum tariffs as well as minimum ones? Do you worry about prisoner rape, assaults on prisoners and suicides in prison?
Or do you just, like so many others - pro and anti, not give a damn!
If the death penalty was abolished, would you campaign for prisoners rights or simply let them rot in hell holes for years, even for ever?
Do you support or oppose the three strikes law?
Do you support or oppose mandatory life?
Or do you only care about the death penalty?
