I am curious where all this sympathy for prisoners comes from.

Reread what I wrote, and cite those portions in which you feel I'm
being sympathetic toward prisoners. You won't find any.

The issue I'm attempting to raise is that condoning criminal behavior
undermines our nation's justice system. It's not about sympathy for
prisoners; it's about humane and just treatment for my fellow man, the
dignity of our nation, and judicial due process.

Would you empower criminals to rob us of that by turning a blind eye
to crimes committed in prisons?

With the corruption rampant in Congress, and the blatant disregard for
Constitutional protections by the Executive branch, the Judicial
branch was the last bastion of respectability. When the people lose
respect for the law, the nation will be ripe for revolution.

Somebody close to you been incarcerated?

Nope. How about you?

How about you?

I've never been in jail nor charged with anything other than the
occasional motor vehicle infraction.

How about you?
