I’m glad the overwhelming response to this is revulsion. I doubt this bill will come close to being passed, but it’s encouraging that so many people can see how wrong it is.
Incarcerated people don’t get a lot of sympathy most of the time. But they’re human beings and they’re no different to any of us, whether we’ve been inside or not. Having worked inside prisons, many of my friends are incarcerated or formerly incarcerated and we need to be ending the situation of mass incarceration, not making it worse through ideas like this.
