The Atlanta Public Safety Training Center, known by its opponents as "Cop City," has been at the center of escalating demonstrations and confrontations.
20 years in prison on domestic terrorism charges for setting some fireworks off or burning a digger.
People are gonna start thinking they're better off doing murder to escape than getting caught. It seems extremely shortsighted of the system to go after people this hard as the result is going to be people weighing that up.
This was definitely a trend in early modern Britain where basically every crime was punished by the death penalty. Better to kill the lord while stealing sheep or cutting trees because dead men tell no tales
They needed to force people off the land and in to the factories, but they also wanted the financial advantages of wage slavery, so they just made everything a death penalty offense to terrorize the peasantry in to submission.
I really think most people don't know how incredibly draconian us prison sentences are. Like you go back in the day and people are getting a few years for all sorts of serious shit, but then the drug war, and really the 90s, happen and the us is sending people up for life for petty drug crimes or decades for shop lifting. I honestly don't understand why people surrender to the cops anymore and i assume it's mostly because they don't understand how corrupt the system is and how horrific prison conditions are.

It depends on the state. A Louisiana term is worse than a Texas term is worse than a California term is worse than a Vermont term.
