re: #593 WindUpBird

How about we just sentence people as they get convicted of crimes, and tack on some sentencing for recidivism?

I’d be OK with that.

The intent is to provide incentive for people to NOT steal my shit, rape my girlfriend, or kill my boss. Punishing people after the fact won’t make their crime go away.

The punishment needs to be really harsh - and clearly 3 strikes is not working because some dumbass decided he really wanted to risk his freedom by stealing a couple golf clubs so he could sell them and buy crack.
