      There is no such thing as a legitimate form of punishment

      Penal systems exist for correction, not punishment. The idea of a sentence is how long you need to separate that individual from society, with access to excellent mental health professionals and various forms of therapy, before they can safely return to society.

      Punishment doesn’t correct people.
