The lie of home detention

[dken31]

So....
Increase gun control for thousands of law-abiding decent gun owners, because one "damned fool couldn't use his brains to make better choices", but don't put known violent offenders in jail because most of them will probably make wise choices and abide by the home D restrictions placed on them (even though the actions leading to their convictions might suggest otherwise).

Yeah, nah, yeah, that sounds like a really well thought out and entirely logical position to take.
