5. "Kill 'em all, along with the socialists, commies and homos"
Seriously, do you really have to ask?

The problem is, aside from being the more humane solution, it's impossible to convince them that it would be less expensive to treat these issues IN THE COMMUNITY than to allow them to escalate to the point where we have incidents such as this.

With privatization, the cost of incarceration has gone from ~$40K/year to over $70K/year per inmate, and the costs of each and every death penalty case (with appeals), on average, is expected to rise to over $1 million per case.

It's all about the vengeance, no matter the cost.
