You are not seeing that without the ability to redeem ones self there is no reason to try to get better, that is one of the strengths of Christianity.
Going to prison is an immediate punishment for committing a crime but not taking away all rights, if that is done ie removing voting rights is another signal to the prisoner that they have become or starting to become irredeemable, you are not trying to squelch prisoners into the ground you are trying to succinctly punish and then encourage redemption and eventual integration back into society, surely this is elementary thinking and obvious to any thinking person?
New Zealand is a signatory to The Declaration of Human Rights which is a Universal Document and should be abiding by it. It is a document which envelopes all civilized countries who have signed it and NZ is one of them. Taking away ones voting right is in itself a crime for any reason. Trump is walking the thin edge of this right now.
Criminals are people just like you and me who have fallen by the wayside and need to be encouraged to get with the team again, not hated forever, there is no path to redemption if that is the case.

It's not the least charm of a theory that it is refutable. The hundred-times-refuted theory of "free will" owes its persistence to this charm alone; some one is always appearing who feels himself strong enough to refute it - Friedrich Nietzsche
