Stallworth released early today for good behavior
-
good god people.....this thread reads like a buncha jealous homeless people bitchin about the soup kitchens food.....
of all the institutionalized-inequality displayed in our country everyday, this bullshit is what spins y'all up?
whats the collective age here....12? why is jailtime the only 'recognized' punishment that many of you are basing you opinions of his easy sentence?
both people made a mistake....apparently, some people can't grasp the idea that ruining 5 lives is not better than ruining 1.
open your eyes, people.

More on the jail time later. He got 1,000 hours community service. Whoopee. That's doing hospital visits with sick kids twice a week for three years.
Lifetime license revocation? Care to bet he gets driving privileges back in five years or less? Depending on how much he paid off the victims family, his signing bonus should pay for limo service in that time frame. Hell, even if he can't drive for 10 years, I'd be happy to be his personal chauffeur for $75,000 a year.
As to jail time, Stallworth getting 30 days ranks third in my book as the biggest travesty behind OJ and Ray Lewis getting off Scot free on criminal charges. He could have gotten 15 years. Yeah, there sure as hell is an inequality for those that can afford the best lawyers in town- as opposed to us peons. Two personal acquaintances- girl hops off curb- guy hits her- not even drunk, but has open beer in car- that will cost you two years, son. Guy driving around town buzzed- clean driving record- loses control, takes out lady in bus stop- welcome to the big house for five years.

First off, lets see a show of hands of how many of you have ever been to jail. How about prison? House arrest then? Any idea what it's actually like?
Being so opinionated I'm sure you have ideas about whether or not herding criminals together and making them roomates is actually effective punishment. In reality, I doubt any of you self-righteous spenders passing harsh judgement on Stallworth has a clue about what you're even talking about because if you did, you'd likely never even consider jail/prison as an option.
Let's face it, the system sucks. You want to punish someone? Fine, but there are a lot cheaper, more creative, and much more beneficial ways to accomplish this. Or if you feel the crime warrants it you could punish them with death. So you're either rehab-able with the ability to return to society or you're not, simple really. And jail/prison does neither.
The annual price tag per inmate for taxpayers in my state is $45,000. Again, that's per inmate per year. That's an average of jail and prison combined and a median age for both sexes (it costs more to house elderly inmates than it does a youth). Sounds kind of like a business, right, and whether we realize it or not we're the customer. Sell the people on the concept of imprisonment and it's all downhill.
"Burn em! Lock em up! Keep them alive so we can make sure they're fully punished, learned their lesson, and will never do it again!.....Huh? Pay for it? Whuh? Ahh who cares. Just get the bastards! We'll worry about that later! God, you're such a buzzkill!"
After reading this thread, boy, some of you sure love to spend my money! Or you don't mind enabling judges and jury's to spend it. Think they have to balance a budget? The one track-mind at work in the courts is all about retribution at any cost, don't be fooled.
The 1,000 hours of community service listed above, even if spent visiting sick kids in hospitals, is easily the better investment hands down. While it may seem light to some, light compared to what? Do you even realize what you're comparing? Really? I don't (or shouldn't) need to point out the positive benefits to the sick kids in the hospitals.
In jail it's all about playing cards and watching a consensus channel that never has shows anyone wants to see on a 13" set too high on the wall to even hear. Plain and simple it's boring...to the enth degree.
Prison is more a lifestyle and survivability is based upon how well you assimilate, you network, and you evolve into an institutionalized member of "the system". Lumping every type of criminal together and expecting them to rehab is about as likely as your wife/husband remaining faithful to you until you get out. In a world of total mistrust and constant fear for your life, not to mention the ass-raping, your quality of life is managed by how well you can play the game, blend in, and effectively survive day to day. And we all know, people will do some crazy things to survive.
Why would you ever want someone to endure either? Whaaah, jail is boring. Actually, it's a very poor use of funds and accomplishes nothing more than fencing potentially productive "people" away, conveniently out of sight and out of mind (yet still racking up the tab).
Prison is beyond vile, completely dysfunctional, and utterly counter-productive. Still think prison is a viable option? Hell, if it's that bad just do the humane thing and kill them for Christ's sake. Now, this might really sound off to some but it's really not, not when you understand what's actually going on. Honestly, when it comes down to it caging a human for life is about as inhumane as it gets, almost like clipping a birds wings and caging them. Imagine having the gift of flight, near limitless freedom to soar and buzz around everywhere and it being taken away--forever--replaced with a cell. It's pretty disgusting really, and depending on the owner of the cage prison is nearly always much much worse than this simple example illustrates. So next time there's an option of life imprisonment @ an avg of $1.5M think, capital punishment, it's good for them and it's definitely good for us too.
It's a business folks and we're the suckers. Unless we enjoy celebrating another's misfortune or take satisfaction in seeing another punished why should we even concern ourselves with other people's business? Because we're footing the bill, for starters. As long as we're taking a look this close why not get involved one degree further and push for some reform for criminal sentencing and capital punishment. It should be enough motivation that without reform it will soon bankrupt our country, although even worse, if Sam has his way in the near future we could be having this discussion on the inside, looking out.

Wow, Greg! I couldn't have said it better myself! I totally agree! Way too much money is spent on a prison system that accomplishes nothing overall! Sure, there are a few people that do get reformed and come out and become upstanding citizens. That's about, what, 5%? The other 95% end up going right back or continue to be the criminals that they were to begin with, but more careful not to get caught. Hell, some of them do things intentionally just to get caught and to go back, because their lives were that bad outside. Why not let all of us pay for them to live and eat inside!? I have but 1 problem with capital punishment...It isn't used enough!
-
Your stats might be close and there are probably a couple percent of spouses that wait it out too but the point is clear, the current system is ineffective and extremely expensive.
Once "set free" (generally w/ leash attached) the successfully reformed offender's option is usually some bullshit job no one but an ex-con would ever consider working, and one of them is never enough to properly sustain themselves anyway. Their other option is to try to lie about the conviction because the stigma society has associated with criminals/felons has made them virtually unhireable for anything worthwhile. Many that don't fear returning just resort back to criminal activities to supplement their lifestyle....at our expense if caught again, not theirs. But you never hear about this side of things.
For some prison is a death sentence, and at its worst it's actually worse in my opinion. For others already plugged in and institutionalized they act like it's easy street, like it's not even a deterrent--especially for gang members. When everyone in the place is forced to rock the same uniform and the lifestyle playing field is leveled there's no worries about keeping your Jordans white or waxing up that whip--very few concerns about life outside in general, and a convenient escape from child support or other payments owed...among other things. A lack of capital punishment keeps the revolving doors spinning among some while it's a one-way ticket to a lifetime of hell for others.
Although it's a total rant I just couldn't help sharing how I feel when I see people so gung ho to lock people up. If this is you I suggest you try it sometime, you might just change your opinion of it.

good god people.....this thread reads like a buncha jealous homeless people bitchin about the soup kitchens food.....
of all the institutionalized-inequality displayed in our country everyday, this bullshit is what spins y'all up?
whats the collective age here....12? why is jailtime the only 'recognized' punishment that many of you are basing you opinions of his easy sentence?
both people made a mistake....apparently, some people can't grasp the idea that ruining 5 lives is not better than ruining 1.
open your eyes, people.
More on the jail time later. He got 1,000 hours community service. Whoopee. That's doing hospital visits with sick kids twice a week for three years.
Lifetime license revocation? Care to bet he gets driving privileges back in five years or less? Depending on how much he paid off the victims family, his signing bonus should pay for limo service in that time frame. Hell, even if he can't drive for 10 years, I'd be happy to be his personal chauffeur for $75,000 a year.
As to jail time, Stallworth getting 30 days ranks third in my book as the biggest travesty behind OJ and Ray Lewis getting off Scot free on criminal charges. He could have gotten 15 years. Yeah, there sure as hell is an inequality for those that can afford the best lawyers in town- as opposed to us peons. Two personal acquaintances- girl hops off curb- guy hits her- not even drunk, but has open beer in car- that will cost you two years, son. Guy driving around town buzzed- clean driving record- loses control, takes out lady in bus stop- welcome to the big house for five years.
He could have gotten 15 years.
My translation:
"What! 24 days! He coulda gotten 15 years!"
15 years X $45k = $675,000
"That woulda been some damn fine justice, he really woulda learned something!"
Hoorta,
Not sure if you were just stating what could have happened to a regular Joe in Stallworth's shoes or if you wanted him to burn but either way it is a travesty. I just used your quote to help make my point, no disrespect intended.

Shock collars combined with community service is what prison should be.
An inmate steps out of line you just zap his ass til he gets back to work...
Sure could use a lot of roads re-paved in columbus.

Yep. Lets just execute all the criminals, that will really fly. Prison is so mean, it cost's so much. Life is a bitch. Don't do the crime if you can't do the time, bottom line. Prison is a punishment, not a rehabilitation. Screw rehab. I would rather have them suffer for 40 years then execute them. I could care less if a murdering child killer gets rehabed or not. You liberals are something else. PUSSIES.

Well that excludes me cuz I'm definitely no liberal...whatever that means today anyway. I thought liberals were against capital punishment, does that make you a liberal then?
If you put the word out you were going to execute more, I think you'd see a significant difference in human behavior, right off the top. It's a philosophy as much as a suggested practice.
Don't do the crime if you can't do the time? Our system is far from perfect and framing people isn't just in the movies. All it takes is one less than honest testimony and you're gone. What a simplistic viewpoint, life is just so black and white right? No one ever gets caught up in the system, no patsies, no corporate fall guys taking it up the XXX for the man who they couldn't prove really did it. Besides, prison isn't even a punishment for some, and you're helping to foot the bill for their preferred lifestyle choice. Sounds like more liberal thinking. If they aren't fit for society, exterminate! Why even keep them around? Just so we can punish them? Really, it's worth the cost? Take them out and move forward, why hold senseless grudges?
I can't even begin to relate to you, but I'm trying. You sound like you have some vengeance issues. Anything we can hug out, cuz right now a fitting nickname for you could be "The Punisher".
If you say screw rehab why not just fry them? You wouldn't even fry a confessing cho-mo (child-molester)?
Like the first sentence I wrote, truth is I bet you don't have any idea what the system is really like on the other side. Only someone who doesn't know could feel that way.

Oh wait, thats EXACTLY what you always do.

If I haven't I should've stfu a long time ago.
Bottom line it's expensive to you directly and for what? The one's in there it's not punishing isn't accomplishing anything, and the one's in there scared for their lives it's actually punishing are probably the one's worth saving!
Shit happens, all the time. Let's stop hating and move forward. You'd see a significant improvement to the nation's bottom line the very first day and would have a pile of money at the end of the first year. There's no question. Money you could even loan them to start businesses or even provide some aid.
Watering the lawn accomplishes more than the money we throw at the current "rehabilitation system".
