Good question!
Obviously no one should be punished after serving their term. But where they are still a danger to society they should be sentenced for n to life in the first place. That goes for sex and gun offenders.
It seems common sense to me; if someone has made no effort to rehabilitate themselves and spent their time in prison on drugs, gangs, plans to get hold of weapons illegally, or kiddie porn. Why let them out?
And this is my last comment as this is definately straying into areas I shouldn't have started discussing on this forum in the first place. Sorry.
