It's such a problem with sentancing though. All it does is let us get our revenge need out but doesnt really solve the problem. Lets imagine the normal path for one of these people in prison, they go in, they probably join a white supremacist/skin head gang for protection, they pick up more shitty behaviors and criminal connections. They get out.. they then go to work with their support network which is now 100% white supremacists and skinheads as they no longer have anything.

What did we accomplish? We kicked the problem down the road for 10 years and made it worse. We never actually fixed it. We really need prison reform for everyone possibly with legislation that makes it illegal to discriminate against hiring former convicts or that you're not obligated to report it unless you're a sex offender.

Maybe job placement/training/relocation so that when you come out you're at parity-10% or so of when you went in depending on your circumstances. Not that prison should be a reward, but so that it actually does something useful.
