Harsher punishments, a safer society? (source: https://www.eur.nl/en/news/harsher-punishments-safer-society)

Empirical studies have found that increasing the probability of punishment has a greater effect on crime than the severity of punishment (source: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0165176512004235).

A quotation from John Adams

   We are to look upon it as more beneficial, that many guilty persons should escape unpunished, than one innocent person should suffer. The reason is, because it’s of more importance to community, that innocence should be protected, than it is, that guilt should be punished; for guilt and crimes are so frequent in the world, that all of them cannot be punished; and many times they happen in such a manner, that it is not of much consequence to the public, whether they are punished or not.
   But when innocence itself, is brought to the bar and condemned, especially to die, the subject will exclaim, it is immaterial to me, whether I behave well or ill; for virtue itself, is no security. And if such a sentiment as this, should take place in the mind of the subject, there would be an end to all security what so ever.

John Adams (1735–1826) American lawyer, Founding Father, statesman, US President (1797–1801)
Speech (1770-12-03/04), Argument for the Defense, Boston Massacre Trial

SHAME IS LEARNED

Shame is body-identification with a whip in its hand.

The body eats, shits, sweats, smells, wants, ages, leaks, trembles, hungers, and dies.

None of this is guilt.

It is just mammal life.

But the mind learns to look at the body through other people’s fear.

A look.
A tone.
A punishment.
A withdrawal of love.

Then the body becomes evidence.

“Something is wrong with me.”

That is the error.

Guilt may say, “I did something wrong.”

Shame says, “I am wrong.”

Mind training begins here:

Do not attack the body for being a body.

Do not worship it either.

Just stop accusing it.

The body is innocent.

It is an instrument.

It needs breath, warmth, food, washing, rest, and kindness.

Shame says, “Hide this.”

Kindness says, “Meet this.”

That is the whole turn.

A quotation from Terry Pratchett

And Sergeant Colon once again knew a secret about bravery. It was arguably a kind of enhanced cowardice — the knowledge that while death may await you if you advance it will be a picnic compared to the certain living hell that awaits should you retreat.

Terry Pratchett (1948-2015) English author
Discworld No. 21, Jingo (1988)

A quotation from Charles Mackay

Nations, like individuals, cannot become desperate gamblers with impunity. Punishment is sure to overtake them sooner or later.

Charles Mackay (1814-1889) Scottish poet, journalist, song writer
Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds, “The South-Sea Bubble” (1841)

No need for a CW on this one because there's nothing actually salacious in view. The humiliating public exposure and punishment scene is for the observers beyond the fence, not us.

By artist G. Smit from a French erotic novel.

Scabies is an itchy skin rash caused by a tiny burrowing mite called Sarcoptes scabiei. Intense itching occurs in the area where the mite burrows. The need to scratch may be stronger at night.

Scabies is contagious and can spread quickly through close person-to-person contact in a family, child care group, school class, nursing home or prison.

Prison authorities help scabies to spread by restricting inmates’ water supply and depriving them of clean clothes and medical care.
