Honestly? Yes. There are evil people. Child abusers, Nazis, rapists, people who scam the needy... On a fundamental level, they don't care if others get hurt, and might actively enjoy their suffering. That's evil.

For these sickos, the only reason they don't do it more often is because something bad might happen to them personally (prison). And if they still do it anyway, then letting them go around without consequence is just enabling them to do it again.

I agree prisons don't do enough to rehabilitate inmates, are used to punish too many who don't deserve it, and often has way too much abuse. I disagree that the concept of prison is evil.
