CORPORAL PUNISHMENT &
A CLEAN SLATE
Beat and Release?
By Max Allen
In nearly all cases a
convicted criminal is sentenced to jail or probation. Neither of these choices has the teeth
necessary to teach him or her a real lesson.
There’s no deterrent because there’s no ‘pain’.

All canings are attended by medical personnel to protect the prisoner from permanent or serious damage.
Probationers and Parolees
live a doomed existence. They’ve no
future because they’ve never been allowed to really ‘serve their time’. Criminal records will follow them for the
rest of their lives.

Rather than overcrowd our
prisons, how about a good sound beating?
In highly developed nations such as Singapore and Japan beatings work.
Check out their crime stats.

| Our prisons and jails are 'warehouses' and 'criminal training centers' where folks leave more dangerous than when they arrived. Even the best prisons in the United States do not even try to rehabilitate. The many programs available to them are generally fluff, not of serious purpose. |
Beaten and released with the promise of a ‘clean slate’ in
exchange for living a lawful life for a number of years may well be the answer. This flies in the face of current policies which simply over crowd our jails and prisons making the U.S. the world's largest prison country. We have a larger percentage of our population in prison than even Communist China or North Korea.
I’m Max,
and that’s the way I see it.
