would a national service style training thingy be better than jail for offenders of less serious crimes?

If by 'national service style training thingy' you mean putting them in the army or something, I'd be cool with that. Someone has to go get shot at for the furthering of Democracy. Why not criminals?

Because criminals might decide that furthering Democracy is less fun than looting, raping, and pillaging.

You know, somehow I feel that giving criminals access to heavy weaponry might not be the best idea.

Penal legions, huh? For some reason, I don't like that idea.

Then again, with a good comissar on their heels they might just prove good cannon fodder?
