What is all this talk about prisoner rights? Did these prisoners get sentenced to prison for committing crimes against We The People and are they not there as a form of punishment? When I hear that people like Charles Manson gets a hold of a cell phone it makes me sick. You have to look at the ways cell phones are getting into the prison system and criminalize the act of bringing them into the facilities. If it is a facility employee, then they should be charged with a felony and terminated from their position.
Prison is a place to rehabilitate inmates, not give them access to us in the outside world. They are there as punishment not to continue their criminal ways from prison. Sometimes it seems that some would like to turn our prisons into a type of country club so we don’t deprive the inmates of anything. I am not really concerned if an inmate feels deprived and I am sure the victim of their crime would feel the same way.
We need to reform our penal system so that our inmates get true rehabilitation in the form of jobs and education. Not rehabilitation in the form of body building and continuation of their criminal ways. Inmates should be kept busy the majority of their time in prison with very well structured programs that will lead to their rehabilitation. Free time would be kept to a minimum. I don’t know about you but I don’t have that much free time in my life and if we truly want to rehabilitate the inmates then the life they live behind bars should be just a busy as We The People’s lives trying to make ends meet. How would you revise our prison system?
