Imprisoning

Synonyms:
Carrying out imprisonment
Description:
Confining a person, removing one's freedom to come and go at will.
Claim:
Imprisoning removes unwanted persons from society, protecting both from encounters deemed injurious or unhelpful.
Counter Claim:
1. Imprisoning postpones (even indefinitely) the encounters between an individual and society, but does nothing directly to change the quality of the encounters. It is a postponement of an issue, not a solution.

2. Most prisons inculcate crime, rather than rehabilitate criminals.
