This guy can fight and barely lived to serve his time.
I think I'd rather be just taken out than have to serve time, and have to fight every day to live.
Some how, we need to get kids to be afraid to go to prison, and then maybe we can see a reduction in the violence that plagues many of our cities.

I value life and I hope to make 90. I prefer for my death to come from old age. Dying young is something that I fear. Being locked away forever, that scares me even more.
There's nothing like drinking hot tea. There's nothing like going to church on Sunday morning (or Saturday evening). There's nothing like a peaceful sleep. Things like hiking in the woods, the freedom to go wherever I want.
Many criminals don't think about at all. Most criminals think in the short term. They don't seem to care about anything. Many people are of the "shoot first and ask questions later" mindset. In order to get kids to be scared of prison, they must first have long term thinking.
I think about this. I was afraid of jail for a reason. I have many things I liked and didn't want to lose. I didn't want go to prison and lose the things I love. I had too much to lose. I had a future I was chasing. Many of these kids don't think past tomorrow or think they have a future. It's a mentality of nihilism.
