FOR PUBLIC SAFETY:
Shoud Recidivisicly VIOLENT Felons be BANISHED from North America ?
If a felon commits a violent crime (e.g.: robbery, burglary, murder, car theft, kidnapping)
after having been released from prison for earlier violent crimes,
and he recidivates after more than one incarceration,
shoud he be removed from the North American Continent
(permanently, or for several decades), in the service of public safety
to prevent additional violent recidivism ? (Think of the olde English Botany Bay filosofy ?)
America owns islands in the Aleutian Chain
that r closer to Japan than to America that we can use,
for financial economy and for safety for the decent people.
Maybe we coud call it: " 3 strikes and u r out of America " ?
Shoud we vu such a person as one who has declared war on the decent people ?
I have in mind that after taking their DNA, retinal scans, pictures and fingerprints that
the death penalty will apply to violation of the banishment and thay be warned accordingly.
WHATAYATHINK ?

I shoud add
that before this is put into effect:
all anti-drug laws be repealed
so that government does not create
a situation wherein violent crime is extorted from addicts
in a desperate effort to feed their habits.
Maybe use the English method
@OmSigDAVID,
You'd positively have to get rid of the "War on Drugs(TM)" before doing it.
You'd also want to do something about our broken jury system first. Possibly a NATIONAL registry of jurrors, and then pick 12 from all over the nation, no challenges, no games.
The war on drugs is deeply unAmerican,
implying that government has authority to define
what citizens ingest. Even the King of England did not claim
to have THAT much authority.
