I have recently read that some people think that extremist offenders should be kept in prisons separately from other inmates, make sure they can't corrupt the other inmates and get them to commit terrorist acts, this is a one of the solution that has been recently presented on the question about how to deal with extremist offenders. Although I have to admit that the nature of crime that this offenders did is quite different than the majority of other crimes that we come across, I don't think that this solution works. What's wrong with this solution? Firstly, I think that if you keep extremist offenders together and isolated from the other inmates they may get better at what they do, they will share/learn new practices which will help them to perform better than they did before. Secondly, they probably will find it more difficult to get rehabilitated because of the pressure of majority of the people that they live with on their landings, any desire towards rehabilitation can be seen as a sign of weakness in the eyes of extremists that are not changed, this may cause violence and other issues. Thirdly, isolated them from the rest of community will not prepare them to live in the community after released, and if we fail in delivering that, all of us have to suffer the consequences. This kind of offenders should be given the chance to change themselves and shouldn't be isolated, they need our trust in order to be able to change their life. This action is so vital for them and for the entire society. Isolated them unless is "for ever" will not get us anything, will damage their chance of getting rehabilitation, waste our resource and threaten our security. Changing their mind, this is what these offenders need, this process requires trust, good example and help, we as a society have got this obligation to offer that and we have to fulfil our obligation. We should treat these offenders as they treated us by using this algorithm, "we against them", we have to treat them differently, we all together, we are all humans". We can't change them if we do the same thing like they did to us. We have to try to help them by changing their mind, and we can do that by giving them the chance to live among other inmates, obviously we have to watch them carefully and correct all their mistakes, but we shouldn't stop thinking that they can changed themselves. If we isolated them we just protect the others, or protect us for a short period of time, which is not good at all, in this case we definitely can't afford to think like that.
