Massachusetts prisons are well known for being among the "nicest" in the nation.

I've heard Huntsville is pretty bad, I know of a guy who was there for some kind of felony crime (heroin smuggling), he got out but was deported to Mexico and lives in Juarez, he says that he would commit suicide before going back there and while he wishes he could return to the USA and work in a factory here, he won't chance it, he stays in Mexico working for $30 a week at a maquila. I'm not sure what happened to him --- but he says he wishes the feds would have caught him instead of the state of Texas because La Tuna and others like it are country clubs. He's one proof that prisons are deterrants if bad enough.

Mass prisons are nice?

Clearly a statment by someone who's never been there. Prisons, even in Mass, are hell holes. Just visitng one on business was enough to scare the crap out of me.

It ain't Turkey, but it also ain't club med.
