Why are inmates let out of their cells enough to stage a riot? And why are inmates allowed to be in gangs?
even in max custody joints/institutions, inmate cells are opened at 6 am and only back in the cells prior to dinner for the 4 pm count and then let out until 10 pm for the night lockdown
I would take the courtyard space, expand the size of cells and keep everyone in solitary for the duration of their stay in prison. We allow these inmates to organize and even to direct things that take place outside the prison.
If you deserve to go to prison, you don’t deserve rights other than simple clothes, a cot, a toilet, three squares, and a safe environment.
What is forgotten all too often, is that even if a guy has done something wrong, he is deserving of a safe environment inside the prison. That is not the case in any of our prisons today IMO. If I were to go in, I would want my own space and to be left alone to do my time.
Hard not to notice the difference between a black, brown, or white.
Gangs.
Of the tv documentaries I have clicked upon it is reported that most prison inmates were gang related prior to there incarceration.
They have seemed to use there cleverness/intelligence (Aryan Nation was set as example) to run a money making organization in and out of the walls they live in by running drugs and have even come up with a sophisticated encrypted
language to mail out orders.
Add to the other gangs black/Latino ect and some corrupt prison guards it is a society that thrives on in prison learned ways.
To bad that these criminals did not put those talents to use for the good before committing crimes/losing there rigtht to freedom ect..
Sure could have been a huge saving in taxes we spend and they could be contributors in our society.
Some prison officials primary jobs are to decipher encrypted letters going in/out of the prison and look for drugs ect.
All paid for courtesy of the US citizens via taxes.
Yet we toss aside the severely indigent mentally/physically disabled whom have no family or the elderly into state run facilities that pay Burger King wages and expose those for no cause of there own to live in filth/abuse ect.
I have seen Missionaries in other countries who provide love/care/shelter to severely disabled babies/kids (EWTN Documentaries) then the Govt run ones here in our country.
Many Freepers and Sarah Palin who have disabled kids GET IT on how KEEPING there child and the gifts from the exp. of doing so are something that words cannot describe.
(sorry got way off topic)
Do a search for UNICOR. The feds are running rebuild and remanufacturing facilities at the prisons. I forget what the pay is, but inmates work in a factory often rebuilding military vehicles. Inside is beyond nasty.
The non-violet inmates live in a camp outside the prison and usually work in the warehouses.
It is a mystery to me.
“And why are inmates allowed to be in gangs?”
Ever worked at a prison? They are gang members before they come in.
The answer is the same for almost every question that starts with "Why..." and has some stupidity following it.
Liberalism.
