Bravest reddit keyboard warrior out here advocating for a child to be locked up forever because somebody else's property was destroyed.

Nah. Locked up forever because he's going to be a nuisance to society

We don’t lock people up because they’re a nuisance wtf. Also prison costs 50k per inmate, plus the opportunity cost of the inmates lost tax revenue. It’s not the quick fix you think it is.

We lock people up for far less than being a nuisance

Who is we?

Short sentences are a waste of resources and statistically result in repeat offences. It doesn’t make anything actually better it’s just about making angry people feel better because someone is being punished

This kid is clearly violent. You think violent people should be on the streets?

If you think putting every fucked up teenager in prison for the rest of their life is an actual viable option then you must be stupid.

I have more empathy than I do fear of teenagers lol
