I once heard in Texas they had some prisoners in tents through cold, rain and heat. Sounds good to me, but it does cost millions to kill a convicted murderer and that seems over the top.

We need to reform the process and the legal profession in general to not cost taxpayers as much money.

".....prisoners in tents through cold, rain and heat.....

Gee guys, don't you think that's a bit inhumane? Here's a more HUMANE form of incarceration. There's an island south of Maui named Kahoolawe (KA-ho-o-la-vi), a former US Navy bombing range that was used by Navy/Marine air units in Hawaii. Let's give all the CONVICTED perverts, pedophiles, bank robbers, thieves, scam artists, murderers and rapists a one way plane ticket to Maui with a connecting boat ride to Kahoolawe to set their own society. If they can not conduct themselves as "Americans" let them start their own "nation"! They'll enjoy the weather all-year-round and they could even develop their own national sport....HOP SCOTCH?

I think it was a hardnosed sheriff in Arizona who so mistreated his prisoners.

Love the good-natured humor involved in ZOT! posts.
