I watched a special on some Russian prisons, and if we really want to deter crime, we should treat or prisoners like that. They can only move around the prison bent at the waste, with their hands handcuffed and shoved up around their head. Outside time is actually in an empty room, and other than that they do not leave the cell. Except for the jail in Siberia, where they do calistinics at 6 AM in sub-zero temps.

When you watched that special, was any statistic given out on whether or not their "methods" deter subsequent crimes? Not sure what your analogy was in your post but is it safe to conclude that you support giving condoms to prisoners?

it would be safer to assume that i feel we treat criminals way too easily in our system. I guess in our current system, i don't care much one way or another about the condoms. might as well sell them at the commisary. But i'd much rather see prisoners go to prison and hate it so much that they'd never risk going back. I think we give them too many liberties. I'm not talking about letting guards abuse them, but allowing prisoners to have creature comforts, time to play games, work out, etc... it just doesn't seem like near the deterent it could be.

Couldn't agree more

:blink: Guys, we're talking here about inmates having sex and spreading germs to our communities once they are out. I also saw a special on prisons. This guy had a g/f (it?) in his cell. He said as soon as he was free, he was going back to being heterosexual.


And the fact that any medical problems in prison (from any cause) are required to be treated ....... at taxpayer's expense.

It is probably very cost effective to spend 15 cents for prevention rather than $3,000 or a lot more to treat an STD.

While I really have very little regard for most felons, I do have regard for my wallet.

I had to reread your post to make sure you were agreeing with me.

So, do we think the people that were irresponsible enough they went to jail will be responsible enough to wear a condom?

      Financial advice from kamala harris

      By LumRaiderFan · Posted

      This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up From the article: “As a parent, then as a homeowner, if you have some equity in your home, then you can say to your child, you know, ‘don’t take out the loan,’” she said. “‘I’ll take out some of the equity to help you pay for tuition so that you don’t graduate with extraordinary student loan debt, and so that when you graduate, you can do your dream job.’” Essentially, Harris suggested that parents give their kids a leg up in the world by being the ones to take out a loan instead. Except theirs would have much higher stakes than just needing to be paid back — it could mean losing their home. 🤦‍♂️

      It has been frustrating seeing the lack of coverage from virtually EVERY media outlet.  We (Chester) are in the SE Texas coverage area.  There are no radio broadcast from our area, and Ch 12 is the only one that has even mentioned it.   I know I could have gotten donations to cover a SETX Sports broadcast.  Oh well, water under the bridge - we aren’t as big as Silsbee, WO-S or PN-G.
