Actually, there are lots of people concerned about the privatization of
prisons. The practice is full of abuses, and should be abolished. We
incarcerate a larger percentage of our population than any other modern
western country, and for longer terms, too. This is an offshoot of the
private prison phenom... It is immoral to create new crimes and
incarcerate more people for more time in order to meet contractual
obligations of a for-profit prison.

Of course, raising this sort of issue in this bastion of
right-wingedness is an exercise in futility.


Are you really suggesting that new crimes are created just so we can
incarcerate more people?

I'm suggesting that accommodations are made to help private prisons
maintain a high occupancy rates. State legislatures in a number of
states are eager to kiss the asses of private prison corporations.




You are starting to sound like Scott. Conspiracies galore.


It's not a conspiracy. It's quite open.

It's been documented in news stories. Here's a news story that mentions
the deals private prisons get to keep occupancy high:

How do you feel about Bernie Madoff? Maybe we should petition to have
his 150 year sentence reduced. I mean it's not like he directly killed
or physically assaulted anyone. Maybe if he says he's sorry to all the
people he screwed out of their life savings they will forgive and forget.


A 150 year sentence for a non-violent criminal is absurd.


You're right. Why warehouse him? Electrocute him.

You already stated you broke a burglars legs via your truck.

swerve to run over people.


Yet another example of how what is left of your brain malfunctions.
What makes you think a "swerve" was involved? You just assumed that. The
conclusions you draw from what is posted here usually are wrong.


You did not drive straight, or you would not have pinned the burglar. As
usual, you are truth challenged.


We'll explain this for the terminally stupid...

The thief was in my garage, loading up his car with my stuff. When I
clicked on the opener in my truck, the garage door opened and the thief
crossed from the passenger side of his car and over to the driver side
of my truck. I drove straight forward and pinned him.

Do you need a diagram?



How courageous of you. Was he threatening you in any way?

The part of that whole story I find believable is that Harry was in his driveway and opened the
garage door.

The rest? Hah!
