I understand we (taxpayers) can't afford to build more and more prisons.


Why not?

I understand we have the highest incarceration rate in the world. I understand prison isn't really reforming people the way it's intended to. I understand nonchalantly throwing around felonies at young people leads to more unproductive citizens as they mature and can't get jobs. I understand our prisons are filled with non-violent drug offenders.


Literally all of this is emotional blubber. You know how you stop crime? You put people who commit crime behind bars.

For a thinking man, it's far more than "emotional blubber", unless you think the CJ system should be without nuance and a grasp of the overall sociological and societal impacts of mass incarceration.
