Prison – a window of Opportunities
Prisoners are a captive audience. Yet the government in all of its years in the prison business has yet to develop a system/program whereby the prisoners and society benefit from the enormous expense and horrendous effects of incarcerating a human being. It is only through the consistent effects of humane treatment, and reeducation that prisons will ever reap any benefits to anyone, save those in the prison business and in prison employment. Achim

Death Penalty - neither a "just punishment"
nor an "effective deterrent" to murder
"Is any one of us willing to sacrifice a member of our own family — wrongly convicted, sentenced and executed — in order to secure the execution of five rightly convicted murderers? And even if we were, could that public policy be called ‘just’? I believe it cannot."
Martin O’Malley, the youthful new governor of Maryland, recently made an emotional plea to a state Senate committee to repeal the death penalty.

Inside the Criminal Mind
By ShepTime. Another four letter word. Good or evil. A curse or a gift. An infinity of duration and distance. As solid as an idea; possible to conceive yet impossible to hold.
There’s a difference between doing time and letting time do us. I have been on the yard, more in than out, for nearly three decades. Time is my nemesis, my oppressor. It is the frigid bitch who governs my existence. I wait for her. For time... For release.
