Oh wait. I wasn't finished
I actually know some people that have spent time in jail. Some are even friends. Not being a snob. Oops shock on GC since a lot of you come across kind of spoiled.
They were pretty matter of fact about the way jail is, and it sounds pretty bad.
I don't know where your inmates go, the Jail Hilton, but the ones I spoke to didn't have the option of college classes. Or a trade. They certainly didn't have TV's in their cells. Internet access? Please!
Now there are some jails where you can have more stuff . . if you pay for it. And buy it through the prison system. No Discount Store prices for you lol.
And there are both different jails and different levels of jails. Some are 23 hour lock down people.
That means you only leave your cell 1 hour a day for some excercise and your meals are slid into the cell for you.
If that is luxury to you, well you grew up poorer than I did.
Generally prison rights people will show you a montage of the worst prisons, and the Big Stick Justice people will show you a montage of the best perks.
This is just good politics. I hope all of you are at least educated enough by now to know that what people say is rarely the whole truth?
Or are some of you still so naive you believe government press releases as gospel?
