If our prisons where like those of Guatemala, Venezuela, Thailand etc..... The reoffending would go down, considerably, F*ck human rights, We need prisons where the guards are allowed to beat you half to death, Where there are no telephone calls or visits, Where there are 100 to a cramped to a windowless damp cocroach,rat,flea infested cell with a hole in...

They are only a deterrent if you have morals in the first place otherwise probably not

Are you looking for accomodation? It seems quite a drastic idea.

Well prison didn't do Ronnie Biggs much harm & he now appears better off than some law abiding OAP's:

It is said that those two thuglet brothers who attacked the two young lads in Doncaster earlier this year, set out to do so because their elder brother (imprisoned himself) said how soft the jails of Britain are, and how his brothers would get themselves a better life and better standard of living in a youth offender's hostel or secure unit than they would ever do 'on the outside'. And indeed they will - they will have better education, their every wish catered for and more luxuries than their mother would be able to provide.

In via prison van and out via hearse

For the thousands that come out and make a clean start there will be many more thousands that come out and re-offend, prison should be a punishment therefore putting people off from wanting to go back but it`s not working is it?

Someone said to me once that they learnt how to commit burglary properly when they were sent to prison! U.K prisons are soft compared to the rest of the world. But it's all Human Rights Act and stuff, which does have a point for some prisoners, although bring back hanging for the rest! Have a good day.

ELVIS...my cousin is not long out of prison. I went to court with him and watched the CCTV footage. He was standing outside a club and some bloke walked up and slapped him. He retaliated but went too far.....

I would have done the same....

He hated prison and has vowed he will never go back.
