I think part of the problem with treating criminals as the true threats to the public at large is this weak and cowardly idea that there are no bad people, just bad behavior. Those who have spent their lives in law enforcement and/or the legal profession know that there are bad people - no excuses allowed - truly evil human beings. They have to be stopped, not just treated in a vain attempt to reform them. For every kid who went bad and blames a missing father for his criminal behavior, there are many who lived a useful life in single parent homes. Jackie Robinson grew up in a large family with a missing/useless father and he became a true American hero and trailblazer. Those convicted of crimes that don't include murder deserve a second chance, not a get-out-of-jail-free card.
