I've been saying it for years that at the end of the day, the only punishment that actually works is the public shaming. Bring back the public perp walks. March the criminal through the streets with a big banner announcing their crime, and then leave them them in a public cell in the middle of town for a few days with their name on it, their crime, and no privacy so that people can come and see them. A few days of that will do more to cure recidivism than any jail you can name. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] Regrettable_incident@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago Ah, the good old days when we could gather in a mob and throw turds at criminals in the town centre.
