But cable TV? Sex changes? Sorry, no. If there's a group out there that is that concerned about the prisoner's right to get a sex change, let them raise the money for it, not the state.

My thoughts exactly. We are human and we make a shitload of mistakes. That's just human nature. Somtimes we make mistakes that we should be punished for but that doesn't mean that we should be stripped of everything. They should still have a right to receive the basics, like those stated in the first part of 33girl's post.
If you take all of that away from prisoners how in the world will they be able to rehabilitate?
