Prison Lifting: For or Against?

[ripper2]

i say give 'em a soccer ball and no weights. that way they won't get strong enough to cause any problems, they wont' get the satisfaction of really improving their bodies, and oon top of that since soccer isnt' a real sport they have to face not only the punishment for the crime that landed them in the pen, but the humiliation of getting their "recreation" from kicking around a leather ball like a bunch of cheesedicks.

Hell no...they are in prison for punishment....

I am for it,they need something to do and look forward to, I dont for one second believe this makes it dangerous for the guards,they just need to be trained that much better not the pathetic way they are currently.

as for leaving to compete No fucking way, we pay to rehabilitate them but shouldnt have to pay for them to be bused everywhere to do leiusure activities

You guys wonder why the prisons are over populated look at the federal penalties they are rediculious I did something stupid when i was 19 a friend set me up now 2 years later i have great job going to school and life couldn't be better now they want to send me to prison for minimium of 5 years for selling drugs. I understand without a dought what i did was wrong is prison going to help me any. NO no priors nothing only going to make me twice as worse off. Just my opinion they are really fucked up on their penalties. I better get to lift weights that will give me hope and keep my mind busy.

i wouldn't let them do it b/c they dont deserve the rite to have all the luxeries while in jail...especially life in prison and getting still all the benefits

They should be made to read...and then read some more. Why let some cocky f*cks workout and get even cockier? Or better yet, send them over to Iraq to fight, and that way we can save some innocent soldiers lives.

Peace be on to you brothers

I'd hope if I was behind bars that I'd have the chance to lift.

When you go to prison the punishment is supposed to be loss of freedom, and not having people rot in their cell.

"Maybe it could be used as a privilege or something like that."

Have to agree. Make it like a trustee level. You know those guys get to take out the trash and bake cookies for good behavior. Let them work out as a reward for not starting shit with the other inmates.
