It feels bizarre to make appeals to a foreign society with a history, culture, government, and demographics which are utterly alien to the situation in the west. We don't live in China. Are you so sure that our situation SHOULD be that of China that you'd be willing to risk you or a loved one being victimized by a violent thug? It always confused me that people would side with criminals over the innocent.

The massive incarceration rates in the US don't seem to be solving anything, although you don't think they're enough. The US has the highest incarceration rate in the industrialized world yet in your view it is barely incarcerating at all.

If China is too different, look at western Europe. England's incarceration rate is less than one third of the US's. Canada is on sixth of the US's. These countries have lower incarceration rates but less crime.

There are short-term solutions and there are long-term solutions. What is your long-term solution?

Trolls aren't paid to have solutions, just spew garbage. I wouldn't waste any time responding to this troll.

"...even more than China. We should instead try approaches that, in Europe, have empirically lead to less violent crime."

"Why do you love criminals and want innocent families to be terrorized and executed by criminals?"
