This month on the New Worlds Patreon my patrons have voted to look at the punishment aspect of law and order. Before we get into the specifics of what types of punishment we inflict, we should consider why we punish people at all — what goal(s) that’s supposed to achieve. Comment over there!
I agree and I would ask why those that are proven guilty of doing bad things aren't punished accordingly? I ask this because terrorists, ruffians and others that do harm to mankind seem to be protected by the law.
