SaH.... if you´re against the death penalty EXCEPT in cases like this and you´d like to see "monsters like Mr. Clark executed", then you are NOT against death penalty. ;-)
I finished the transcription for your post. I can't imagine getting sexually assaulted and then no one being there to help you! That is aweful. I get that you are in prison and I don't know what you did to get there... but just because you are in prison doesn't mean you lose your human rights! That is so sad! Is there not someone you can go to other than the correctional officers???
This would be a good article to send to our newspaper writers. Worth a try. They would need to edit it or read it and write their own article. They would need your permission to do that. Do I have it? Karen
What I can do Robert is print this out make copies and send this article to a few legislators and whom ever else you deem would it would deem appropriate. How that? We have new congressmen/women are they ones? How about the Governor? So either write to me, give Nathan the instructions In case Nathan gets transferred soon my address is 1712 Carver Rd # 230 Modesto Ca 95350. Ok my heart is with you. God bless dear and yes those who served for our country are publicly highly revered and special attention are given to them while in uniform. So I'd like to personally thank you for serving our country. You know there is a trend developing that "are" paying more attention to the observation like 30% of our homeless served..ect. and public opinion especially the holiday season are sympathetic to that and realizing they do have special needs in the mental dept soo..Until then Robert Love Karen Woodyard
At no point did I say people should not be incarcerated if they broke the law. However this post is about what is happening to man while *in* prison. He is already serving the time he has been sentenced to. Do you believe that any other treatment of him is justified simply because he is a criminal?
"I don't know the answers to dealing with mentally ill repeat offenders. Do you?"
I would assume that treatment and rehabilitation work better than violence. I also believe all humans deserve human rights, regardless of what they have done. Do you believe violence solves problems in our society and prevents further crime? Do you believe this man should be executed as well?
What if we don't incarcerate people who have been convicted of murder? What if we don't lock up people who issue death threats (several)? Do we just sit back and wait to see if they do it again or if they act on the threats? Again I'll go back to the heinous ambush/murder of John F Kennedy in November, 1963.
I agree with you, arcadiaego - but what does society do with a person who commits a major felony while incarcerated? Such is the case of Mr. Pinson AND Mr. Ronald Clarke. Should we as a society not be safe if convicted felons are incarcerated? When is enough enough? Let's take the bold and potentially lethal escape via helicopter in the Clarke case. Were lives not risked? I am certainly no mental health expert. I don't know the answers to dealing with mentally ill repeat offenders. Do you?
