playing basketball interfers with baking bread, running dice games, and making pasta. the mere stench of garlic as they exercise would get any physical sports shut down pronto

i don't see an issue with this.... if they wanna die, who am i to stop you? you realise you are a burden on society, wanna end your life... awesome. saves me the trouble of feeding you. may be the (easy way out) but i think the good of society is worth more than someone getting their "full prolonged torment" for their mistakes. seems that the priorities of prison systems is fucked up. reforming people to be intergrated into society again is the main purpose, but when you get life sentances, and they have no hope to get out, it's just torture, like pulling the wings off flies. let them end it. no repeat offenders, no reintegration, no wasted tax dollars, saves space, and lowers the number of the population by getting rid of a group of people that seem they have less to contribute to society than others. the more human and economical solution would be allowing them the right to die if they so choose

Well impala's never been to jail. But I'm sure with all his expertise in the prison system he can say how awesome it is. all I know is what I see in the media. so if they're setting up fake prisons with basketball courts and lying about prisoners having cable TV and getting college educations, then I guess I'm wrong. |

Yea, but your attitude of oh my god it's the easiest thing to be in jail is just ignorant. Yes that's right, let's not give them a TV, then they could sit in the cell with a couple other guys all day being bored as shit. That won't lead to fights or people being really pissed off because they're stuck in a space with nothing to do all day. Hey, let's do a social experiment, let's put you in a house, take out the tv, your computer, and most other things you have and make you sit in there. You'd go fucking insane. You probably couldn't go more than about 2 hours before you wanted to bust a window and just leave. Besides tv, no tv, basketball courts no basketball courts doesn't make anyone want to or not want to commit crime. The only thing going to jail does is make it harder for you to get a job than it was before, waste years off your life, make you be a better criminal, and have you lose what morals you had because you grow to hate everything about this society. |

The only state that allows prisoners to get a bachelor's degree in prison is Utah. And incidentally, their recidivism rate dropped dramatically. -------------------- Holy shit, pebkac, you're awesome!

The History Channel
You could also talk with friends and relatives that have been in, but I guess not everyone has access to these sources. -------------------- Spam? Isn't that something poor people eat?

And prison, county jail, city lockup, etc. is hell. I have relatives/friends that have been in. Don't believe the media for 99% of what it says "good" about the prison system. -------------------- |

My brother works in the prisons....and as much of a conservative as he is, he is in there saying that some of that shit is just too rough on the inmates. Yeah...you see tvs and basketball in prisons....they 1 hour rec time, and 30 minutes of tv time...........just enough to keep them from getting restless...but I can guarantee that playing basketball outside for an hour doesnt help you forget that for 20 feet in every direction is a shitton of razorwire, and every 50 yards theres a tower with a guy holding a rifle. Also a lot of those people DO go in and come out with a GED or HS diploma.
