Unless they have repeat offenses...and any of those were aggravated then nonitrogen wrote:If someone serves their full sentence, their full rights should be restored.
I categorically deny that prior restraint is a good thing, and should be encouraged. If someone has comitted a crime, and served their debt to society, I think we should give them another chance.
If they seem to have an issue with keeping their nose clean, a 100 year sentence with provisional releases might be appropriate.
Most prison overcrowding is due to people comitting victimless crimes, like drug posession. Perhaps changing our crime policy might also be appropriate, but isn't really in this topic of discussion.
