A sensible question.
PRISON....is it like what the radio dj's etc say.....ie its very cushy with plasma tv's playstations etc????? ..I thought it was a place where you had to work hard as punishment then get locked away in a cell with a hole to shit in?.....and you had a big risk of getting fucked....now thats WHY i dont wont to go to prison so am law abiding to a degree...BUT it appears its well cool and you eat good have loads of leisure time bascically a holiday ....i even heard you get paid!
...is there any wonder the UK is goin to the dogs?

Depends on what prison and what you are in for.
I know someone who's husband got raped repeatedly when he was locked up, I also know someone who was in an institution so soft he used to have a mobile phone in there with internet access and the guards never bothered to look for it.

even if it is an easy place to do your time its still a shit place to be
but somefolk have probably got more when they go in ie they might not have had a telly in there house?they dont get thress meals a day and some folk i know if they get a fine would rather do the days so they get a holiday from the misses

The guy who got raped a lot was in for manslaughter, and was a bit of a pretty boy of about 19 or so when he went away, so wasnt really able to handle himself on the wing he got put on.
He hasnt offended since, so the system certainly worked for him in that respect, but he has some "personal issues" now as a result of the raping which are pretty harsh (mainly mental ones)
It certainly increases my personal wish NOT to go to prison when you hear some of the firsthand accounts of what its like.
But to be honest the "loss of liberty" is the biggest punishment which puts me off wanting to be there, even in a luxury room and with sky TV and all the stuff the media pretend every prisoner gets, I still wouldnt enjoy being locked up.

He never meant to kill anyone as it happens, he was a thief but never meant to hurt anyone so not as bad as some people are, but hey, thats the risk you take when committing crimes I guess, an innocent person lost their life, and now he and his wife and kids and parents etc all have lost a big chunk of happiness from their lives too due to the effect prison had on him.
In his case, the guilt of someone dieing was more than enough of a deterant I would think, he is stupid but not nasty, and it was a wakeup call for him, but im sure the prison term and the rapings etc may have also had an effect on wether he offends again or not.
My honest opinion is that no one deserves to be raped while they are in prison, and the system has failed if it allows it to happen, the justice system is meant to set the penalty as the same for all people, it doesnt make sense to me that someone who is a lesser thug and not able to look after himself inside should be continually raped by a gang of stronger criminals.
Dont get me wrong, I think sentances are too lean in many cases, but I dont think that it should be the case that some people end up mentally damaged for life as a result of treatment by other inmates, as that is NOT productive in solving crimes, in fact in many cases its likely to send you even more off the rails and make you more dangerous IMHO

well i was talking to a bloke at the pub once and i asked him all the same sort of questions
and he said "what happens in prison stays in prison"
he also said if your gonna spend years inside you need something to shag!
after that i got abit scared and wanted to go home!!!

i was under the impression was manslaughter was an accident where as you didnt mean to kill the person??
anyway i think if you did get raped the once you would deffo ask for solitary or asked to be put on protection.

I dont understand why there cant be varying degrees of punishment dependant on the crime you're convicted of, petit crime and the like keep seperate and in reasonable living conditions and the proper dangerous people or sex offenders get treated like shit. not rocket science is it?

So if you are a murderer you are likely to end up with some pretty nasty people around you, if you are in for a driving offence, you are likely to be with other such people etc.

manslaughter isn't premeditated whereas murder is
I would never do anything where I could end up in prison for one reason, you have no freedom to do what you want, no matter how comfy it is

i done 2 weeks in a jail when i was 18 & it was just an experiance realy i was on remand so i was in with the cons instead of young offenders but we got a playstation 2 every 2nd day, a stereo in our cell, every cell had a tv, showers where cubicals so no funny business, it was mega laid back as there where a few in with mobiles & more drugs in there than outside folk used to bring in ps2 controllers for mates inside filled with all sorts as the screws never botherd opening them to check for drugs, but the peopdophiles & rapists & kid killers got it tight big time (as they should) but my worst fear ever would be to be convicted of something like that but you was realy inocent
edited* i was in cos i had to do a social work enquiry report for driving offences & never went so they banged me up (young & stupid)

People on remand should be treated to a nicer lifestyle than people convicted and sentanced, given that they havent been found guilty of anything yet, so I dont really see a problem with playstations etc for people on remand TBH.
Why should people suffer on remand, when by definition many of them are innocent?

i'd turn your attention to the thread on piston heads not long ago about the bloke who went to jail
its very easy to make a split second decision that can turn peoples lives around, and end up in the nick
to a rapist in jail im sure he doesnt give a shit what crime youve commited, if he wnts to bang you the he's going to,
imagine you were in for causing an accident, a bad split second decision to go a little bit more spirited round a corner than normal, what round the corner? noboday can say
what if there is someone walking? someone on a push bike? what if you knock them down, thats manslaughter, and that wouldnt stop you being molested in jail
so phil's comment about the guy getting what he deserved was harsh, and imo disgusting,
but after reading some of phils comments its been done to get a reaction, as he knows thhat it would annoy people, seems his main aim is to come on PF an annoy people.

Can't comment myself, but my sister is currently serving 8 years. She doesnt want to get let out because she loves it there. Says you soon forget your locked up when you have everything you need.
Fucking joke imo, hardly a fucking deterent/punishment.
Oh shes also a total cunt and i cant stand the fucking wench
