Remember kids, in real life pet dragons won't save you. Better be careful and not confront a suspected stalker in the middle of the night where he might ambush you.

Though to be fair, the whole gang being there was really bad luck.

I forgot about what someone once told me a long time ago until I read this chapter, "Prison is not a place to rehabilitate someone. It's where bad guys meet to scheme a bigger crime to commit when they get out."
Prison is to put dangerous people out of reach from civilized people and it is the reason harsh prison sentences for big crimes and the death penalty are very good things.

Not putting criminals in prison or worse light sentences for criminals is a crime against humanity and civilization.

I believe that's more a consequence of prison design and administration than of imprisonment itself. The US, for instance, has never seriously attempted to rehabilitate its prisoners. Instead, it has simply collected and punished them. As a result, yes: its prisons ironically function as crime incubators.

I'm not sure that's true. The countries harshest on crime are not necessarily the most law-abiding. The US, for instance, has long imprisoned a larger percentage of its population than any other country, and it typically ranks among the top 5 for use of the death penalty (along with the likes of China and Iran). It does not, however, enjoy a particularly low violent crime rate relative to other Western nations.

I believe that we should carefully study various approaches to criminal justice and apply those that typically result in better outcomes. By which I mean we should use real-world data on recidivism and public safety to design prisons that will reduce the former and increase the latter.
