    We already jail more than France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Denmark, Norway, Sweden and Finland. We’re about 40% more than the nearest one of those which is France. Several of them we’re 2-3x more per capita.

    We put too many people in prison. We’re not on American levels, but it’s still too many.

  How, exactly, would one do that? Especially considering these men seem to have no community spirit whatsoever?

  I.e. translating to no real punishment. For permanently destroying a historically significant site.
