Polls: Society & Politics

There’s a few caveats here so expound as needed

The suggestion below would apply to some / most non-violent crimes,

Ankle monitor / halfway house, REAL EFFECTIVE STAFFED parole supervision, community service and monetary fines?

Perhaps mandatory labor in which they learn a trade (s) and must demonstrate apprentice, journeyman or mastery level to gain release?

Maybe mandatory education classes, counseling, emotional regulation techniques, psychological reconditioning, etc.

A national service program for non-violent offenders maybe running internships in their area if expertise on home release? Maybe an international program where they provide service and in steps work their way back home?

Just an aside. There are three things that should never be run for profit, prisons are one of them. Healthcare and education are the other two.

Im sure by now everyone knows whats going on in UK

Whos worse?

My family is an even mix of differing political views, and we get along just fine as were adult enough to respect others political views.

In the United States, recruiting people into the military is down. The Pentagon says it recruited 41,000 fewer people than it sought to in fiscal year 2023.

The poll below lists many of the reasons given for this. All but one of them is given by the experts as a reason for the decline in recruitment. One is made up.

Can you find the made-up reason?

Please vote in the poll.

The made-up reason will be revealed in a few days (Tuesday).

Personally to me, it's a complete waste of time. I'd rather live a happy imperfect life than be triggered all my life with brief moments of happiness.

Modern research into gender dysphoria stretches back at least a hundred years. In 1910, German physician Magnus Hirschfeld created a medical term for transgender identities. The first recorded “sex reassignment surgery,” as it was referred to at the time, took place in Berlin, Germany, at the Institute for Sexual Science in 1931.

In the 1950s, Christine Jorgensen, an American trans woman, rose to fame after having gender affirmative surgeries.

I was recently banned from another online community. It was a site for software developers. I did not speak about my personal life, and I only asked career-oriented questions.

I saw one of the moderators visited my linkedin profile, and the next thing I knew, I was banned.

I had a post showing my support for Trump. Was it that?

The only other things I can think of was really bad things I did in my past. I had a misdemeanor stalking conviction from 8 years ago. I also was caught up in a sting operation by some vigilantes, who are now facing legal troubles themselves.

I am a changed man now. I am engaged and in pursuit of my relationship with my fiance and maintaining my career. I am a Christian and a church goer and I strive to be a better person.

Asians, Hispanics, South Asians (Indians), other Asians and Middle Easterners are very quiet about the discrimination they face in America. To not cause a scene they will Take the punches. But if police target them... there's going to be Shit!

In view of the fact that there are so many different individuals all with there specific preferences and needs, I say that laws should be geared towards the welfare of the human race as a whole.

Its a never ending story trying to cater for everybody. There will always be someone complaining and left out as things are.

Under the law which puts the human population first many individuals will still be protected, because without human individuals there will not be a human population. But the approach is radically different.
