Truth to be told, most people who end up in prison for violence/gang/drugdealing stuff are just not worth much pity. Cold hearted criminals just love to abuse the trust of the average people, this has been seen like a million times already. Alternatively we can label them as animals not responsible for their actions.

That’s a straw man if I’ve ever see one.

Regardless of their actions or how people view them, they’re still human beings with rights the should be protected like anyone else’s.

Further more, this lack of concern is probably what encourages them back into the life of crime. What else do you do when society is hell-bent on shunning you?
Exactly. Shunning encourages antisocial behaviour.

If we actually want to break the cycle, we need to seriously reduce adverse childhood experiences.

"drugdealing" "just not worth much pity"

Sure thing. Those cold hearted pushers who make people addicted to the killerdrug marijuhana for example, do not deserve the smallest pitty. Put them all in a dark hole where no sun shines, serves them right.
