Heh, don't blame the criminal for his crimes. Sounds like what Limbaugh

Haven't you heard? The criminal is shaped by his genetics to have a
propensity towards anti-social behaviour, some more than others. When
a criminal offends it is an expression of his inner nature and he (the
person, not the chromosomes) should be dealt with in a civilized
fashion.

It's sad to see many US States spending more on jails than on
higher education.

It's sad to see so many Democrats occupying prison cells.

Maybe that's why liberals want felons to have the right to vote.
