A judge in central Tennessee is hoping to help repeat offenders “make something of themselves” by offering them a highly unorthodox and probably unconstitutional deal: reduced jail time in exchange for sterilization operations.

Under a standing order issued by General Sessions Judge Sam Benningfield, inmates in White County, Tenn., can receive 30 days’ credit toward their jail time if they volunteer for vasectomies or contraceptive implants, as NewsChannel 5 reported Thursday.

The order came down quietly in May, and already dozens of inmates have sought to take advantage of it. Thirty-two women have received implants of the hormone device Nexplanon, and 38 men have signed up to receive vasectomies, according to NewsChannel 5.

1. Eugenics: doing god's work because their god's too lazy

It's another really, really bad idea that never seems to die.

If they'd do it to white collar criminals, I might think differently. But no, they always do it to poor folks.

2. How would this stop them from being repeat offenders ????????insanity

3. I don't think recidivism is the real goal. Eugenics, per the above.

Reduce the number of minorities, by any means possible:

"War" on Drugs
Welfare "Reform"
Voting "Reform"
Healthcare "Reform"
ANY DOJ policy the Sessions elf wants to reinstate as AG

4. All of the above. Parts of this nation are heading back to the Bad Old Days as fast as they can.

6. The side effects of those implants can be horrific.

I had a contraceptive shot once (same ingredient) and the physical pain, constant heavy bleeding and emotional disruption were the sickest I've ever felt in my life.
