exactly! I am a firm believer in education leading to liveing a less criminal life! Not always the case, but in most cases! I just think it is rediculious that prisinors who commited murder get a better life than my children who are completely innocent! The system seems to be set up to make those released commit more crimes because life in jail is easier than out of it! A little backwards to me! If you want to keep people from coming back, why make it such a nice place to be? it's a DAH thing in my head!

You know Denise, if we spent more money on schools and after school programs, etc. we wouldn't have to spend nearly as much money on prisons because there wouldn't be as many prisoners to take care of.

Maybe if we spent less money in the prisons and jails there would be more money to spen on schools and fund other important projects! Do they really need cable and state of the art workout facilities while doing time? NO! If I can't work out at a gym because I can't afford it why do I have to pay for a felon to be able to?
