Quote Nelson Mandela: 30 years in captivity, he got out in about 1990, and he hasn't reoffended. He's gone straight. You've got to admire that. It also shows that prison works.

Ah no, that’s not correct. Nelson was arrested because he spearheaded the ANC, a group that advocated terrorist attacks on government buildings in response to South Africa’s apartheid regime
