Well at least make life last as long as life, and prison not as cosy, in Britain murderers get Sky TV and everything...Sort out the justice system tbh.
It angers you that prisioners get television? They physically and psychologically
need
ties into the outter world, other wise they become agresive and may go insane. If that were th case you cannot assure the safety of
anyone
who is in that prision, whether guard or inmate. The reason convicts have televisions is not for the sake of their comfort, but for their safety, the safety of other convicts, and the safety of anyone who works in that prision.
Also, if it comes to the point where it necessary, there is such a thing as solitary confinement, and it
can
be for life.
Prisoners need TV for the sake of thier sanity? And my arguements are the ridiculous ones?
Tattoo thier forhead, and send them to prison. Four walls, soup, water, and plumbing. Done.
I wouldnt give them soap or plumbing...

Your prisoners would totally not murder the guards of your prison whenever they had the chance. They'd totally accept those conditions.

No. But you think rapists and pedophiles life nice lives in prison? LoL, get real. They likely get beat and raped daily by the other inmates. Murderers, I suppose in prison it depends on who they killed how they're treated by the other prisoners/guards. Still, you're pretty ignorant if you think anyone would want to go to prison.
Also, what ivokk said, if you keep the prisoners contained but keep them generally happy, they won't try to revolt or escape.

There is practically no convict unrest in this jail, it is the single safest jail to work in in the world.
I'd rather be a guard here than work at an old folk's home.
Because they got rewarded for breaking the law, GG.
Also, other decent people have been through worse, rapists/peadophiles/murderers deserve @#$% all except bread and water.
If they get raped or beaten up daily it is the least they deserve, but that relies on prisoners giving out justice, rather than the supposed justice system.

The two are not always synonomous, true, but they are also not mutually exclusive. In the case of drug dealing, they are synonomous. Illegal drug dealers do not belong in my society. Period. I don't care if that drug dealer is my daughter/wife/son/etc... they don't belong.
Edit: And having a "P" tattooed on your forehead sounds harsh? Imagine what the child went through. Try to use empathy. I know you have it. Empathize with that child.
So... you want a perfect society? I'm sorry to tell you this, but purging it is not the solution and in most cases it would be counterproductive. Rapists, drug dealers, and murderers come from
all
backgrounds, you cannot eliminate crime simply by sending it away or locking it up for life, new criminals are born everyday.
Your system would overfeed our already overflowing incerceration system and would hurt our relationships with other countries because if your policies were applied we'd basically be exporting more criminals than anything else.
This is not a one-dimentional issue at hand.Somehow I see your arguement here. You don't view a crimal as a regular person who commits a crime. You view a criminal as some sort of different type of person, who is born like that, no fault of thier own.
Right now our prisons work on a revolving door basis with no real threat of punishment or social conseqences. People are fearless because we give them no real reason to fear the law. Murder someone? 5 years of HBO and hot meals.
The first time someone is publically humiliated and exiled, people will think twice before selling drugs again. The first one to hang for murder will send a message to people that maybe they should find another way to work out thier differences. After seeing someone with "P" tattooed on thier forehead, a person will develop a new found respect for children.
My ideas would lower crime rates. Scarry and mean? Yeah. That's life. Tough it out.

Rofl I know people, although I dislike them, that have been to prison and been treated much better in prison than they have IRL, pre-crime.
Guaranteed meals a day, always enough water for a shower, TV...all being paid for by the taxpayers, they get given everything in prison.

Calling bull*!@#.
Anyways, your system will just guarantee that someone will go down fighting and kill as many cops as they possibly can before they get arrested, since their life is over anyways. And that's not good at all.

This is a form of torture.
But raping someone and mentally scaring them isn't?

Is this the penitentiary with the hardcore criminals, or regular jail with the petty ones?
Where I live only has one prison, which contains every criminal on the Island, so every type of criminal.

Torture?
The term is as twisted as they come. Someday soon, if the temperature in a jail cell falls below 77 degrees F, the ACLU will be screaming torture.
I love listening to a bunch of people who have never lived a day without food and dry clothes try to philosophise about what torture is. My shoes don't fit... waaa... torture. My don't have TV... torture. I have to sit in my jail cell... torture.
Anything below a leave it to beaver standard of living is considered torture and inhumane these days. Just more reasoning for the failing society we live in. No law holds sting. It is all full of hot air consequences.
