Comments on: It’s high time that we revisited our attitude on incarceration. In particular, we need to rethink our philosophy about how to deal with non-violent offenders. The broad brush approach simply doesn’t work. Neither does mandatory sentencing—even though mandatory sentencing may be politically popular especially following heinous crimes. We need to bring a little more common sense into our criminal justice system. It’s time for us to shun kneejerk reactions and focus our attention on finding less costly solutions that actually work.
