        We absolutely can greatly reduce crime by doing that and should – but that’s not going to completely eliminate those crimes.

        People are going to slip through the cracks, and sociopaths are still going to exist.

        Yeah that’s nice and feel good but you can’t deny that there are people who behave badly because they’re just rotten people.

        Domestic abusers are a key example, people go through the same supposed stressors that DV perps go through without belt whipping their kid for not being man enough at the age of 5.
