and this country loves it. we love criminalizing people, keeping ppl in jail. we're OBSESSED with crime. News in the country = crime. people believe that criminalizing everything and everyone (mostly poor people) is the way to run this country. prison has started to define who people are, or we like to think so.

Well, the rest of the world already knew this.. I'm glad America knows this her self too now.
Imprisoning people is not the way to reduce crime, I believe in giving some form of education to these people and/or at least give them attention instead of putting them behind bars with all kinds of other criminals (not everyone is guilty ofcourse) and releasing them after some time, without trying to make them stronger in sociaty and putting them back in the same situation , if not a worser one then at the time they were put to jail.

^^^that just shows how much prison is appreciated (in terms of "correcting" people) instead of education. as much as education is used as a buzzword for politicians, its a fucking joke in this country...we like to use education as both an excuse for why people are poor, and an excuse for why people are rich.
