John Pfaff added,
@JohnFPfaff pols still don't want to be seen as "soft on crime" when it comes to reform. Even if little data supports increasing sents.
Oh, I know! Just feel like current attitude is “well, let’s get what we can,” not “let’s push things in better direction.” @laurenkrisai
@JohnFPfaff It's difficult to strike balance btwn short&long-term thinking/strategy. Don't want missed opportunities or to make things worse
Im sitting here w tenure telling politicians looking at an election 1 year away to take risks: def aware of irony (hypocrisy?) @laurenkrisai
At same time, what is point of academia if not to try to point out difficult but plausible alternatives, to push the envelope? @laurenkrisai
@JohnFPfaff @laurenkrisai I see zero hypocrisy in pushing the pols without mercy and with reason, don't stop!
