Prison Vacancies

[Utopia]

Cheshire prison has 300 vacancies? Maybe? Who has the answer? What's wrong with this picture?

Whats wrong with 300 vacancies: whats wrong with that picture? there should be more vacancies. , why more? because there should be more graves being dug for convicted capital offenders.
we have enough prisons, we don't have tough enough laws to carry out death penalties, or it we do have the laws, they aren't being carried out.

Hello...

Can't agree that WE need to murder more criminals but...

repeat offenders of non capitol crimes... drug dealing... petty larceny,
fraud... domestic violence.... the same names every week in the police
blotter getting off... I'm all for filling up those vacancies with them.

I work with a guy getting busted for drugs twice a year... he pays his
lawyer... and his fine... and continues unpunished. Room for one more ?

maybe its my personal definition, but victims are murdered, not criminals. 'disposing' of convicted capital offenders is opening up resources.

as far as the same names appearing in the police blotter,i refer to one of my original posts from another thread. take the criminal with multiple offenses and, by using a points system, assign a felony. if they can't find an honest way in life and still get convicted for more offenses, you assign another felony. IF they still cannot get their act together, they will now face a third offense and from there they are locked up for life.

We defintly cuddle hard core criminal too much in this country. Its time to get an island and make another Austrailia
and let the criminals govern themselves and provide their own resources.

The victims were murdered and the criminals go free to commit more crimes.
