Private prison roundup
Here are a number of private prison related items that deserve Grits readers' attention:
"NO" on private prisons.The prison corruption is bad enough but it only gets worst in private prisons and no remedies. Who remembers Wackenhut? The STATES need to be responsible and accountable for their own Industrial prison complexes, if they cannot handle, they need to change some laws and stop locking people up for none violent infractions against the law.Example is the Texas Jail Standards, who has gone to the site to see who serves on the boards, last time I looked all were Sheriffs accept for 2,is this the Fox put in charge of the Hen house syndrome?
