    Default Human's history of wars proves that we are recidivists

    "the tendency of a convicted criminal to reoffend." We newbee born sinners assume we aren't queued up next on line? Recidivism is one of the most fundamental concepts in criminal justice. It refers to a person's relapse into criminal behavior, often after the person receives sanctions or undergoes intervention for a previous crime. https://www.nij.gov/topics/correctio...s/welcome.aspx

    Researchers at the Cambridge, Massachusetts–based public policy firm Abt Associates and circulated online this week by criminal justice experts, argues that the conventional wisdom about recidivism in America is flatly wrong. http://www.slate.com/articles/news_a...aybe_they.html

    The latest study of state prisoners estimated the recidivism patterns of about 400,000 persons released from state prisons in 30 states in 2005. The findings from the 2005 study cannot be directly compared to those from BJS's previous prisoner recidivism studies due to changes in the demographic characteristics and criminal histories of the U.S. prison population, an increase in the number of states in the study, and improvements made to the quality and completeness of the nation’s criminal history records since the mid-1990s. BJS has also used criminal history records to examine the recidivism of persons placed on federal community supervision in 2005.

    In addition to recidivism statistics based on criminal history records, BJS collects administrative data through the Annual Surveys of Probation and Parole to examine the rate at which offenders are at risk of being incarcerated for a new offense or for violating the conditions of their supervision. https://www.bjs.gov/index.cfm?ty=tp&tid=17

    The deadliest war in history, in terms of the cumulative number of deaths since its start, is World War II, from 1939 to 1945, with 60–85 million deaths, followed by the Mongol conquests at up to 60 million. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War

    ASK NOT WHAT THE WAR CAN DO FOR YOU, BUT WHAT YOU CAN DO FOR THE WAR.
