gollark: Crimes are widely considered bad because they have bad effects on people/cause suffering. I don't agree with causing *more* of that.
gollark: That depends on how much people are committing crimes due to impulse things, and how salient that sort of thing actually is in decision-making wrt. criming crimes.

gollark: If you think it would reduce crime because something something deterrent then... maybe... but just punishing people for the sake of punishing them is not something I can agree with.
gollark: I disagree. Ethics is most important in situations where emotions are running high, like those.
