Do you have evidence of this?
Not everything has to be documented with footnotes, etc.

I like backing up assertions with proof as much as the next guy, but it doesn't have to be done every time.

There are many things in life that are understood/undisputed.

This fact represents one of those cases.

I don't think anyone in here would dispute the "repeat offender" fact unless they were trying to push a different agenda. Rehabilitation doesn't work in most cases, pure and simple.

If anything, the current jail situation helps the criminals become better criminals.

Also, I have a background in this. I have been there when we arrest a guy and he is out on the street before we even finished the paperwork. Or, he is out in less than a month for a serious offence. It is very frustrating and dis-heartening.

Talk to cops, they know. When driving down the streets they know most of the criminals by first name because they have arrested the same guy/girl over and over.
