> If there is no real penalty for being a career criminal
When did I say there should be no penalty for crime? When did I say there should be no penalty for a career of crime?
> What is your solution to prevent crime without incarceration
When did I say we should eliminate incarceration?
You're putting words in my mouth. You're creating a strawman.
What does crime mean to you?
What does crime look like?
What sorts of people commit crimes? Why do they commit crimes? What crimes do they commit?
You said incarceration is “neo slavery”. The base assumption is slavery is wrong.
So what should the penalty be?
I said *mass*-incarceration is neo slavery.
> The base assumption is slavery is wrong.
Do you disagree that slavery is wrong?
Obviously slavery is wrong, that’s why I said it.
You continue to dodge my question about the alternative to incarceration, when we continue to have significant numbers of repeat offenders. You know what I’m asking, yet continue to try and distract from it by nitpicking semantics. I don’t think you have an answer.
