I find your entire position very upsetting. Compassion for everyone should be the ideal.

The notion that very human laws, can lead to very negative outcomes for people seems like a terrible system.

In addition, an estimated 40,000 people are wrongfully imprisoned in the US right now.

I’m more inclined to attribute those “very negative outcomes” to the life choices of the criminals, which all too often come at the cost of innocent lives and livelihoods.
