3 hots and a cot. All at the expense of the Tennessee taxpayer. Might be better to house these people, get them jobs, and make taxpayers out of but then, this is Tennessee and I do not expect much from them, Kentucky, Mississippi, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Georgia, Alabama, Arkansas, and Florida either. Might have something to do with Republican misgoverning...oh...and racism.
So - how much does it cost to support one person in prison for six years? How could that be better spent helping them in the first place so they can contribute to society and pay taxes?
Pretty sure that the CATHOLIC church (yes, I'm quoting the church) would tell you that PRO LIFE also means feeding, clothing, housing the post fetus humans. I guess they forgot to tell the GOP.
Actually, if he were a good person, he would have done more than just warning us about the military industrial complex, he would have worked towards shutting it down.
$28,000 per year per prisoner. Thanks for your info. I actually read the article.

And, of course, there have never ever been ruthless D.A.s with political ambitions. So everthing is going to be ok.
Something something "rich and poor alike". The more things change ..
And you have BINGO!
But felony charge and never getting to vote again = so worth it!
Just more of that yummy compassionate conself-servotism at work!
You left out Texas.

Is this the same Catholic church that wants to excommunicate Joe Biden? Or is it the one in Europe?
I'll be using that little bon mot.
They don't want him back. They all wear a little silver copy of his execution apparatus around their necks...not very welcoming eh?
