The only purpose that can be fathomed or articulated for criminal justice, even by a cop, is therapeutic

. The failure of the justice system to protect innocent lives is essentially … managerial in nature, I guess? We just have to seal up those notorious bureaucratic “cracks” that habitually violent maniacs keep falling through.Article content

This is the failed operating philosophy of Canadian “justice”; any resemblance to brain damage is coincidence. I am sure McFee has feelings that it would cost him his job to express — and come to think of it, I do too. What I will observe is that the public character of criminal justice has now been virtually destroyed thanks to lunatic “privacy” obsessions.

It also occurs to me that we could perhaps have a system of gentle space-utopia criminal punishments if there were any meaningful consequences attached to the “conditions of release” that judges scribble like Rupi Kaur poems. Maybe we don’t want to chain mere convicted robbers to cinder blocks and throw them in the river, even if it would mean that a few kids later survive to see adulthood or that transit users don’t have to run a gauntlet of knives to get to the mall.
