Matthew Skala (mattskala@mstdn.io)'s status on Sunday, 17-Sep-2023 00:32:25 JST Matthew Skala @Moon Why are state prisons broken down first by type of crime but federal and local first by "convicted" or "not convicted" and only after that by type of crime? This and oither non-orthogonalities in the classification (like "type of crime" breaking into different categories in different parts of the diagram) make some comparisons difficult.

Sexy Moon (moon@shitposter.club)'s status on Sunday, 17-Sep-2023 03:18:49 JST Sexy Moon @StampedingLonghorn Just today I involuntarily saw a cellphone video on Fedi of a person in a car recording themselves deliberately running over and killing a random bicyclist. I agree there is a bigger discussion about how people get that awful in the first place and how to prevent that, but the person driving that car deserves to be in prison for the rest of their life so I just can't get behind prison abolishment. -

Stampeding Longhorn :budgie: (stampedinglonghorn@social.linux.pizza)'s status on Sunday, 17-Sep-2023 03:18:51 JST Stampeding Longhorn :budgie: @Moon 180,000 murderers has me a bit amazed. I honestly thought that there were more people locked up for lesser crimes vs violent crimes, but was I wrong. The US is more violent than I thought.
