But, I do not understand their negative feelings toward the incarcerated, particularly after they repeatedly voted for one in Washington, Tom "Wild Thang" Delay. I wonder what Drag name he will use after shaking his derriere on Dancing With The Stars? In retrospect, that was not a bright move. I am sure that he will make friends inside.DearthBreathnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-9116812464396980372011-01-21T16:42:40.453-06:002011-01-21T16:42:40.453-06:00They need to close Wayne Scott Unit too down in Br...They need to close Wayne Scott Unit too down in Brazoria! That unit is falling apart; ceilings falling in on the inmates, windows rotting out around the bars to where vermin comes in, equipment all breaking down and not being repaired or replaced. But they paint over the mess and it gets accredited by an inspector, who never goes into the area that houses the inmates? Only in Texas!Deborahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09430613911174820436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-8242824413203097032011-01-20T20:00:55.700-06:002011-01-20T20:00:55.700-06:00Anonymous said...

It's ignorance on the part of the person who made that comment. AND, wasn't the prison there BEFORE they bought a home in the area?? I'm not for or against the closing, but once again, it's about greed on the part of the SL "let's get even more money than we already have" developers. My thoughts are with the hundreds of people who will definitely lose their jobs, as TDCJ is downsizing and I doubt seriously they will "absorb" these employees into another position in the system. Hate to see anyone lose their job these days.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-5406725832114736072011-01-20T10:49:18.868-06:002011-01-20T10:49:18.868-06:00"I think it's better that the prison is o..."I think it's better that the prison is out of the neighborhood area because it's a safety for the children.

Unlike some areas that rely on prison's to employ people or places like Scurry County where TDCJ is the biggest employer, Sugar Land does not want or need a prison.Hook Em Hornshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04660612847019528535noreply@blogger.com
