CONTEMPLATING:
“Don’t call them all scum. Judge not lest ye be judged.”

Should he call them “most scum”?

Obviously not, since scum is beneficial to the ecosystem.

And since we will be judged by our judgments, murderers, rapists, thieves and suchlike should refrain from judging their kinsmen in the same matters.

David for good judges

Not everyone that is incarcerated is guilty. Most are but there are some who get wrongly convicted. This is a horrifying thought. To be thrown in prision for something you never did. Don’t call them all scum. Judge not lest ye be judged.

@chris from molino I read your rants frequently on this site I want you to respond to the fact that you stated you watch several inmates beat to death for no reason. I want to hear under what circumstances you felt like you couldn’t put a stop to murder. Its murder because you said it happen for no reason. Just to let you no my prison inspectors will be notified and a report will be generated and we will find out if you are just a blooming idiot or a coward and a killer

Here’s a thought. Don’t like the amenities in prison? DONT DO THE FLIPPIN CRIME! Honestly, some people just have no sense at all.

I’ve worked in 3 different prison in the past several years. I have never witness an inmate crawling on the floor because they don’t have a wheelchair, walking into walls because they are blind, limping around the prison without a cane, and wondering around aimlessly because there is a communication problem. The fact is these inmates have 24/7 to cause problems for the state of FL and guess what they do!!! Inmates are accommodated with wheelchairs, canes, there are inmates who assist the weak are blind, and there is always an interpreter for language barriers and the rare times I have ever ran into an inmate who could not hear are see, I was well aware of who they were and I took steps to overcome the communication barrier. Don’t be fooled guys!!! For those who haven’t worked in a prison are county jail. I am almost certain that you can talk to your local sheriff office ie county jail are warden ie prison and they will be glad to take you on a tour are make arrangements for you to take a tour. There are several surprise audits done each year by civilians, out of state officials, your governor and upper management. I 100% guarantee the inmate are being taken care of and treated fairly and some better then when they lived in the public.

@Dan
Not on any side. However, I never said anything about not letting handicapped inmates have necessary items. You seem to be able to read well and have a good memory, so how is it you didn’t notice I was responding to a comment, not the article ?
Inmates used to be able to file writs for free (because their inmates). They clogged up the court systems so badly that legislators changed laws and forced inmates to pay to file. They would literally file writs such as, “So and so got a bigger piece of chicken than me”.
@kevin- look at the recidivism rate. Most do not get out and do good. Infact, most are animals and deserve to be there for life. I would say give most a bullet because their just breathing up air a good man needs but thats wishful thinking.
PS. to Dan- I look at things realistically and truthfully. I have plenty of negative to say about central office as well as inmates.

What I really meant to Imply is give them the bare minimum that they need but not any extra.

REGARDING:
“and NOT getting the same treatment as ALL inmates it is a total violation of their rights as a human being living with a disability”

Actually, if the other inmates aren’t going canes, dogs, wheelchairs, personal servants either, they ARE getting equal treatment.

What they want and you want to give them is special consideration.

Surely you can get other convicted felons to serve them.

If they are sufficiently disabled, they can be placed in low risk facilities because their own bodies have become their prisons. The loss of dignity is inherent in being forced to stay in a place surroundedby by convicted felons.

Inmates never lie either……whatever. I’m sure there are some exceptions but in order to be treated like a human being you’ve got to act like a human being.

@ Chris from molino just the other day you said that you had witnessed people beat to death in our fl prisons and how you didn’t participate but watch it and how the politicians new what was happening and doc new what was happening and did nothing but now you don’t want them to have wheel chairs if they need them or hearing aids to hear with or canes to walk with what do you believe which side are you on the one that gets to complain about everything but stand there and do nothing
