PUNISHMENT VS. REHABILITATION: A PROPOSAL FOR REVISING SENTENCING PRACTICES

What was the article about?

 The Article is about the penal system being flawed, and how we can improve it.


Is prison the best solution for dealing with gang members? Why or why not?

Its the best solution, but at the same its not. The reason that i am in the middle is because in jail they should have rehab programs, and ways to make them into decent citizens, and encourage them that there is a chance for them, that there is a way to get them out of their situation.



  In your own opinion, what can we partner with prison to make it more successful?

Psychology Consultation, Prison School, and don't make them feel like they are in a bad place make then feel like they are going to get better not worse. 


Talk about something interesting you learned from reading the article?

That in some states like Texas, they promote Rehab 100 percent, and other states like California don't even care about their inmates. 


What was confusing and why?

 Why the prison laws have to be state? They should be Federal Laws so that all states can follow it and not mess around with the inmates and actually make the difference in society.
