In reality imates run prisions in America. They have their own set of rules they live by. They have a definate pecking order. Everything they have on the street, drugs, guns, boose, cell phones, and women, are available inside.

The guards merely keep a lid on their activities...If they can. Many guards are intimidated to look the other way or to help supply the inmates needs. Others join in willingly to make a profit.

We have several privitely run prisions in Tennessee. They hire ex-inmates to work inside after they have been out a couple of years...Because they know how things work inside. What's wrong with that picture?

Serious reform needs to be made to insure the prisions are secure. They are far from it now.
