Have Pizza, Will Travel

Like obviously, we all know the reason is that they are all completely delusional and think that they live in a world where crime simply wouldn't happen if everyone held hands and everything was free, but like... I really, honestly, truly want to hear what they think will happen to violent rapists, murderers, terrorists. I've just never heard it.

that, or they're so sheltered, privileged and naive that they genuinely can't comprehend that there are actual people out there that will commit crimes for a thrill, sexual gratification, because they don't like being told "no" and to bully others, from the shoplifter stealing a six pack when they have 400 dollars in their billfold to BTK style serial killers

or on the other OTHER hand, they do not actually remove the boot from the necks of society, they want to WEAR the boot

This "abolish prisons" opinion comes from the kind of intersectional feminist / wokeist / generally leftist belief that all crime is caused directly (and, most importantly, solely) by a lack of resources, by poverty, by being in a situation where you have less positive opportunities. That every single criminal on the planet is a victim of something, and was driven to do what they did for some reason or another. If they're a thief, or they got a parking ticket, well, they're in poverty and the system keeps them poor, so they aren't to blame. If they rape or murder, well clearly it's mental illness, and this could have been avoided if they had access to medical help.
