Except most heinous murderers are not "flowers". They are indeed 'weeds' and thus will never BE flowers.
So, yeah it is BS.
Society produces all sorts. In many cases it is the very condition of society that produces the 'weeds' and the problems - therefore society as a whole needs to tkae responsibility for its flawed individuals.
Killing them because they are flawed is a mark of a callous society. A society that does not take resposibility for its flawed members.
So, no, it's not BS no matter how many time you assert it
No, that is pretty much the issue. That is a great excuse for the family whose innocent loved one was murdered by a person already incarcerated so that nothing much can really be done anymore, "Sorry Ms. So-So about your husband's brutal murder. I see we have to implement better management techniques. Oh, well, live and learn..."
The issue is risk management, just as with any field of endevour that entails risk.
You still imply that violent offenders cannot possibly be managed, therefore they must be killed. Killed not for what they have done, but what they may potentially do.
Again, that is not how justice works.
