Appears to be a win-win situation. I generally like Leno but he could lose a few pounds. Won't miss the rest...

[onyx]

Let ‘em starve to death, because NONE will follow through.

[GeronL]

Gang violence has become a civil right??

[max americana]

Hooray for hunger strikes! Now starve and die you stupid libs.

[GeronL]

The African-American community complain about violence, crime, drugs, unemployment, poverty, lack of businesses.....

There is a very easy solution.

STOP VOTING DEMOCRAT!!!

[Berlin_Freeper]

Petersburg told fellow inmates he planned to be executed on death row rather than spend life in prison

[Brad from Tennessee]

Considering California’s deficit crisis inmate hunger strikes should be mandatory.

[Slings and Arrows]

I thought Leno had a bit more common sense. Maybe his wife put him up to it.

[informavoracious]

And what is THEIR solution to prison gang violence?

[wardaddy]

Actually contrary to most here I have issues with extended no human contact segregation

It seems cruel and unusual to me

There are folks in federal prison that have that imposed for over a decade

That is a long time to be in your own head

And no....not all have killed someone

[bikerman]

California's use of solitary confinement

How about renewing the death sentence then.

[CrazyIvan]

Cooler!

[If You Want It Fixed - Fix It]

We’re supposed to be better than that.

Don’t isolate them so long. Instead, after intentionally starving them a few days there, put these same ones all together, and return them to half their food rations. They’ll be too hungry and weak to fight and will soften until the are ready to behave and return to their specific populations. Make it a disciplinary move that encourages differently.

Instead of human isolation, isolate their muscles from energy.

[LibLieSlayer]

Make leno stay in a cell with kwame for a night... he will get his mind right.

[Moltke]

Did anyone actually read even the excerpt?

The celebs aren’t going hungry - all they did was sign a friggin’ letter.

[joethedrummer]

Let these ‘celebrities’ take the prisoners into THEIR homes to serve their punishment instead of solitary.

See how compassionate the celebs would be then!

[JoeProBono]

[Venturer]

Don’t put them in isolation. Take them over to Leno’s house and chain them to his front door.

[CatherineofAragon]

Good, maybe Leno will lose that chin.

"Gloria Steinem, Jesse Jackson, Bonnie Raitt and Jay Leno have joined prison hunger strikers in calling for an end to California's use of solitary confinement to control prison gang violence."

So much for this 'Jay Leno is a conservative' nonsense that keeps cropping up here from time to time.
