This reminds me, I’m really thinking about signing up for WSJ’s subscription. $30 a month ain’t bad at all. The only issue is that I think their op-ed page is shit, and a newspaper’s worth can sometimes be measured by their editorial columns.
Prison violence goes under the table all too often. That shit’s not right. It feeds an underground prison economy as well as the depraved culture of criminal/gang life in the first place. It perpetuates itself. People should be less tolerant of it, and definitely not in favor of if being some sort of extra punishment tacked onto the prison sentence that’s already supposed to punish them for their crimes.
But of course, most people only see one side of an issue without even bothering to dig any deeper.
