    Actually yes (in my opinion).

    There’s two options. People have a choice in what they do and can change how they behave - in which case we, as a society, should help them to change and be their best selves. This process would take place somewhere where they could no longer harm anyone, a “locked rehabilitation centre” or whatever. Basically prison but without the hangups on what many prisons are like right now.

    Option two, people don’t have a choice in what they do and can’t change - in which case, how can we blame them? Keep them out of harm’s way and let them live the best life they can without being a danger to anyone.

    So, theoretically, anybody is eligible for redemption in my mind. Either because they can change and grow, or because they have literally no choice in their antisocial behaviour. In reality, the sort of people we’re talking about? I don’t know what they would have to do to prove to me that they have actually changed and want to atone for what they’ve done. Is it even possible to make up for the crimes of politicians and billionaires who will do anything to keep their money and power? Still, I don’t think that killing anyone is the correct answer in my ideal world
