If you had the power to change the prison system, what alternatives to incarceration would you consider for non-violent offenses?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

How could alternative sentences for non-violent crimes change your community and the justice system?

Imagine a society without prison overcrowding; what changes do you think would be necessary to achieve this?

What are your thoughts on the impact of prison overcrowding on the mental health of inmates?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…4mos4MO

How would you feel if someone you cared about was in a crowded prison for a non-violent offense?

 @4MYTQMWanswered…2yrs2Y

No, but we should decriminalize drugs and reduce the stigma around employing ex-convicts with non-violent histories reduce overcrowding

 @93RQL4H from Massachusetts answered…2yrs2Y

Yes, especially those who are only in jail for possession of marijuana.

  @93G2RP7 from Wisconsin answered…2yrs2Y

 @8ZPHR88 from Colorado answered…2yrs2Y

Yes, but we should abolish the current prison system in favor of restorative justice system.

 @92YHQCV from California answered…2yrs2Y

Yes, but they must perform community service on a daily basis while being placed under house arrest with an electronic bracelet

 @92YHQCV from California answered…2yrs2Y

Yes, but they must perform community service on a daily basis and/or be placed under house arrest using an electronic bracelet. However, we should increase funding to offer education and skill-building services for prisoners.

 @9334YP3answered…2yrs2Y

No, we should privatize prisons and convert life sentences into death penalties.

 @7GQMXLT from Wisconsin answered…2yrs2Y

They should be permitted to be, on the order of a judge, assuming house arrest and community service for the duration of their sentences. It should not be an across the board mandate or expectation.

 @92XHX9V from New York answered…2yrs2Y

it depends on what their initial crime was in the first place, if it is anything related to the harm of children then absolutely not so it depends on what the initial crime was.

 @92XBXBB from New York answered…2yrs2Y

Most nonviolent prisoners should not be in prison. This question should change the title to say 'prison' vs 'jail'. There is a big difference.

 @92NVQ27 from California answered…2yrs2Y

No, they can't be released from jail without evidence of why they have to be released, and once they are in jail, they're criminals.

 @92MWV7F from Texas answered…2yrs2Y

The prison system does not bring true justice. We should go back to a biblical model of actual payment for wrongs done.

 @92GWJXX from Georgia answered…2yrs2Y

  @MSelvig from Wyoming answered…2yrs2Y

 @92BKNSF from Maine answered…2yrs2Y

We can't build more prisons, we can't change most of the people in prison if it's a serious crime like 1st 2nd 3rd-degree murder, killing/molestation of minors, etc. Crimes like that and it's not the most humane way but I feel we should expand death row even though it would be terrible to kill another human but you should defiantly not kill/molest a minor.

 @924HYRZ from North Carolina answered…2yrs2Y

We should adopt the way prisons in europe handle their inmates by rehabilitating them and teaching them skills to offer a better way of life.

 @8ZYDXDD from Oklahoma answered…2yrs2Y

Yes, but they should preform community service and physiological evaluations once a month as well as free education in order to return into society

 @ThomasJ476 from Georgia answered…2yrs2Y

 @heatherdvdprincessanswered…2yrs2Y

No, this violates the Amendment about doing trial twice.They should keep the sentence they got. But I approve of alternatives such as house arrest, and I certainly approve of training community service, given there are no opportunities for child abuse, stealing, etc.

 @8ZM5ZPZ from New York answered…2yrs2Y

 @jpatel from California answered…2yrs2Y

Yes, only if the crime was minor and non violent, and the prisoner has a history of good behavior

 @8ZJFSF6 from California answered…2yrs2Y

 @8ZGW3DM from North Carolina answered…2yrs2Y

yes, well, this would have to be on a base-to-base case. cause there is a need to have room but also the way that each does things and what they have learned from it as well.

 @7THPXS9 from Wisconsin answered…2yrs2Y

Yes, but more importantly prisons shouldn't be privatized. Privately owned prisons promote high inmate volumes and low reformation efforts.

 @8YCMCFZ from California answered…2yrs2Y

Yes, but replace the sentence with community service, house arrest, parole, etc.

Yes and while we are at it, help them adjust to life after prison by setting them up with housing and employment.
