So harming criminals is okay, got it. Shall we reinstate the age-old tradition of cutting off thieves' hands? And you haven't even addressed the difference between being charged with a crime and being convicted, both of which can land you in jail.

    That's correct. You were the one talking about criminals in jail, which would be reserved for minor crimes/sentences or people awaiting trial (not that that precludes violence from other inmates). So which are you talking about?

    (That was my first post on the thread. I was just making sure there was the clarification of the two locations and the innocent people would be in jail, where prison are for those convicted.)
