Mandatory Prison Sentence

Don’t drag this back up. It was settled that beans are a paupers food and have no place in any respectable dish. You sir can go straight to meat missile prison with that behavior and are only serving as a demonstrable to his proposition.

My Mexican friends disagree with your heresy.

I nominate you for the band list.


If you said cucumbers, we could’ve been friends.

The mandatory military service thread got me thinking. I think every US inhabitant would benefit from spending a year in adult prison. Not a work camp or some sort of prisney land with lots of privileges. Just bare bones, close custody. Go in on your 18th birthday and release on your 19th.

- You have nothing to do but work out. Boom! There goes the childhood obesity epidemic.

- You learn to respect others and their space.

- Being an asshole results in pain. Too many have lost the association between poor behavior and pain.

Since a high percentage of imprisoned people go back mutiple times they must like it. Making it so less people are afraid of prison could lead to more repeat visitors. Plus the cost of housing and feeding everyone for the stay. Sounds like a complicated way to find out if a meat missle in your bun is a sandwich or not. If you want to find out just turn yourself in for something you did wrong. Dont drag everyone else into your shit show.
 
Mandatory one year bare bones adult prison at 18 for everyone close custody, no privileges, just workouts and hard lessons sounds like a tough love fix for obesity, disrespect, and unchecked bad behavior but real world evidence shows it would backfire hard.
Studies on US prison weight changes find inmates often gain weight especially women, shorter sentences spike it more, due to starchy food, limited real exercise, stress eating, and depression not lose it like a boot camp. Physical fitness can drop without structured programs, and obesity rates in prisons frequently exceed or match community levels, not fix the epidemic.
Psychologically, even one year in harsh adult close custody traumatizes young adults: high PTSD rates up to 48% in some samples 9% general, anxiety, depression, hypervigilance, emotional numbness, and "Post Incarceration Syndrome" that lingers long after release. Witnessing experiencing violence, isolation, and loss of autonomy often worsen impulsivity, aggression, and substance issues exactly the opposite of teaching respect or self control. Youth in adult facilities face way higher abuse, suicide risk 36x more, and long term mental health damage, fueling cycles of crime, not breaking them.

Regardless, I still believe in Santa Claus.
 
I think the demise of America came some time in the 2k era. I as a early 90's graduate grew up with fights at school every week, fights at parties nearly every weekend. We played with jarts and guns.

My generation knew running your mouth meant running your hands or stitches and sometimes both. We knew not to stand under a lawn dart or it'll hurt, we never considered making the game use washers or god forbid bean bags.

We suffered from testosterone overload and tried to fix it by driving too fast, beating the snot out of something or humping the neighbors sister, daughter or even her mom if luck was with us. We had male teachers who pinned us like a pretzel in PE because we were disrespectful and my English teacher touched my heart. With his fingernail. Through my sternum....because I was disrespectful.

Getting sued only happened in California on TV and we weren't having that.

It's hard to keep my kids deprogrammed from what society norms are today. We've had the cops show up because the kids stood up for themselves. I stood at the school for my kid when he was disciplined for telling a freak who wanted him to use was /were as it's pronouns and my kid told it those aren't even pronouns and perhaps it should figure out English before messing with biology (I'm still proud of him for that piece of work).

All of this happened in a school district with 600 kids in a 40x60 mile area....I can't imagine what it is like in urban areas.

My advice is to teach your kids to go hard at everything. Fight hard for yourself if that means in sports practice, English class or the parking lot. Love hard. Show them you love them. Tell them you love them. Make them know that when you are neutral emotionally it's not a good thing, it means they are slipping from their baseline. Make sure they understand that the opportunity to run your mouth may be a protected right, but with that comes risk, but that right alone with the rest of the constitution is their's and they better be willing to protect it. All of it.

And for the record, bullies were the kid who could buy beer in 7th grade but we all caught up to by our sophomore year and recognized the pecking order with.... not some username in the comments section hunting for likes by calling you something snarky......and try a game of mumbly peg instead of cornhole. If you are afraid of knives maybe Indian leg wrestling, yeah we still call it that you pussy.

100%. The “violence isn’t the answer” campaign of the 90s and the rise of social media just created more bullies. Instead of giving wedgies, bullies start online campaigns to convince other kids to kill themselves. Yay for progress.
 
My bicycle was my greatest possession as a kid. It was my means to communicate, transport, exert energy and compete. I was expected to be outside till dark.

Today they get an iphone and lock them in a bedroom.
