@ tazdevil - 4.07.19 - 10:30pm Prisoners deserve rights too. The objective of jail/prison is to remove these people from society because they are a threat, not to just remove their rights. There are so many different socio-economic realities in play with incarceration, especially in India. Often times people end up in jail because they are a product of their environment, and are doing what they do because they can't escape. I think it is at the core of our government that we are free to pursue life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Now, obviously that freedom is limited due to crimes (especially heinous crimes like r*pe or murder etc) but let me take it to the farthest extreme. A man kills someone, and gets the death penalty. What good does that accomplish? Now, we can of course argue whether he deserves to be alive or not. I'm of the opinion that he does. Why? Because the records prove that a large number of people sentenced to death were later found to be innocent. At least they could have resumed their lives if they were not dead. I know this is going to sound made up, but 2.45 out of 3.73 lakh prisoners in India have not yet been found guilty. They may be innocent. They are behind bars, not beyond justice. If a person is proven guilty of a terrible crime, they are indeed a terrible person. They are no longer a threat to society once they are imprisoned for life, but killing them leaves no room for grace/forgiveness/reconciliation. It eliminates that. They die, and it is over. Justice may have been served, but there is no positive outcome. So I believe in the basic human rights of inmates, just like any other person and if anyone bothered reading this, I hope I was of some help/insight lol here and there I disagree or rather don't share a sentiment here and there... but yes, basically this. |

I am all for them working and keeping the prison off the grid so to speak financially wise... Like growing food, keeping chickens and other livestock etc... making their own clothes and such.

I done a month in a military prison for a stupid mistake when I first joined, its called a military corrective training centre. My feet didn't touch the ground when I got there until when I got out, every day was constant training, physical training, military training, inspections. It was a really sh*t time when I arrived but as i got near the end of it I started to get into it more, it made me a better person and made me more keen in the army. When i finished I got put on a promotion cadre and got promoted on the next round of promotions.. No television, no time to feel sorry for myself, better than the Butlins holiday camp prisons in civilian life.
