"Cuz then I’d argue why is sexual predation possible in our prison system? Isn’t this something we could largely avoid?"
Apparently not. We would need three shifts of guards for each prisoner. This isn't achievable, nor is it practical.
It would be much easier to keep prisoners in facilities that correspond to their biological sex. Problem solved.
"Starting with decriminalizing all drugs?"
Oh, good idea. While, yes, that would relieve prison congestion somewhat, not everyone is in prison on drug offenses. And yes marijuana should be decriminalized and we are moving rapidly in that direction. But I don't see trading prison congestion for a national addiction crisis to be so great an idea.
"Apparently not. We would need three shifts of guards for each prisoner. This isn't achievable, nor is it practical."
Yeah, just another layer of Jared's idiocy that I don't see any point going to deeply into. This is like asking if we could do away with murder or violence in general. No. We can't. But we can do everything possible to minimise it. And the easiest lever to pull, given that sexual predation and violence have been male majority crimes for the entirety of human existence, is to ensure that women have privacy from men in certain circumstances. However those men "identify"
Pardon me, 𝑎𝑛𝑜𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑟 national addiction crisis. We already have nicotine, alcohol, games, benzodiazepines, and illegal narcotics. Legal heroin and crack cocaine would have half the nation hooked.
Heroin is 𝑛𝑖𝑐𝑒. If your life is plagued by anxiety and emotional distress, as almosts every life is, heroin is hours free of that pain. If your pain level is high enough, you will immediately want to do heroin again and again, and in a few months you will be addicted.
