Would you rather have life in prison or the death penalty?

Dude sorry for replying to your threads but damn you make ones that people have an urge to reply to haha. Death Pentalty. If there's no chance to get out what so ever? Yeah I'd rather die. I've been to jail and the fact I had no freedom? I would have willingly died if I was in there with no chance of freedom. Prison's way worse, sorry I need to have my chance for freedom to keep me alive. If that isn't there? Kill me on the spot, I'm already a dead man at that point if my freedom is taken away.

I'd choose the death penalty, providing it happens within days of choosing that option & not drag on for weeks or months or years waiting for the paperwork to clear.

Death.

Most people here would too, they probably just don't realize it until they've been raped a few times.

wow. people have a really skewed view of prison and jail. it's not even close to what you see on t.v.

Unfortunately the later is how most US prison's work.

The way that prison is supposed to REHABILITATATE people is to make them think. "Wow that place is HORRIBLE, I really should not do anything to make them send me back there" .

Its not supposed to be SUMMER Camp.

But if you want a nice prison I am sure there are much better ones in other countries. May I suggest Mexico or Iran.

EVERYONE. American prison is better than 99% of prisons in other countries.
mp3, huge commissary list, cable tv, plenty of job programs etc.
racial politics is what makes prison shitty. everyone here except me has probably never stepped foot in a prison. it's the shitty individuals that make it bad, and it's their shitty behavior that got them there.
jesus.

No one here knows for certain whether you have even stepped in a prison as well.

what assumptions? i've worked in a prison. you are the one assuming that i MAY be lying.

And ultimately you may or may not be lying but ultimately your experience may not be the norm for prisons in the US so it's not like we can take just your word on the matter.

hmm. did you get sob stories from you family in jail? did they want money on the books?

Yes some of them were sob stories. I've heard plenty of sob stories but like your story it may or may not be the norm.

What I do know is that things like rape, violence, over crowding in prisons are actual things backed up by data.

hmmm. violence by many people who were locked up by violence. how odd. rape is not that rampant. most sex is opportunistic and for money.

I've seen the complete series of OZ, so I'm definitely the prison expert here and I can tell you that there's a good chance you'll get anal raped or murdered; sometimes both. About every 3rd episode good chance.

lol. yeah oz was good man. truth is that the worst part or american prisons is racial segregation, boredom, being away from family, and people annoying you.

can you imagine having a celly that snores and having that celly for a year or so? or a guy that farts constantly. assaults happen because of things like this
