Three things.
1) Correlation does not imply causation. The reason those countries "have very little crime" has virtually nothing to do with their lack of parole. Given that we incarcerate more people per capita than any other nation on earth and hand out longer average sentences than any other nation on earth, following your "logic", we should be the safest nation on earth... Right?
2) The Federal system abolished parole in 1987.
From 1987 to present, the volume federal incarcerations have absolutely exploded. So, you're wrong.
3)
Yeah, fine job we're doing, using the ideas of people like yourself.
MORE LAWS!
MORE PRISONS!
LONGER SENTENCES!
MAKE US FEEL SAFE!
THEY'RE STILL NOT LISTENING!
