over Strategy on the WAR on TERROR
THE GOAL OF THE BLUE SKY SOCIETY
The goal of the Blue Sky Society is to make society as free of violent crime as humanly possible.
Society can be much less violent than it is now!
It may seem wishful, but a vast improvement can be made to happen!
FOUR METHODS PROPOSED TO ACHIEVE THE GOAL OF REDUCING VIOLENCE IN SOCIETY
The Blue Sky Society proposes four specific methods to help make progress toward the goal of reducing violence in society.
- do a better job of managing known violent offenders
- convert prisons to centers of learning desirable behavior
- increase education's role in teaching rational thinking skills
- increase respect for fellow human beings by teaching the Golden Rule
METHOD 1 Reduce Repeat Violent Offenders
- The repeat rate for sexual violent offenders is over 80%.
METHOD 2 Prison Environment Reform
- Prisoners should be learning desirable behavior in prison, not undesirable.
METHOD 3 Improve Rational Thinking Education
- Improve rational thinking capabilities with emphasis on reading and math skills.
METHOD 4 Teach the Golden Rule
- Institute formal elementary school classes that teach the Golden Rule.
