In general it’s a good point, though. Westerners in particular seem to want their cake and to eat it too. Execution and indefinite incarceration are both inhumane, but they also don’t want a guy who’s openly a rapist anywhere near them in any context. Locally, reformable people are most of the prison population, but I do wonder what I’d do in the shoes of somewhere like El Salvador.
