Answer 1

Prison is one thing, and one thing only. It is HELL ON EARTH. rat

Answer 2

I defiantly don't think jail/prison is like a stay in a hotel, but the fact is these prisoners have it better then many of the homeless people in the US that are good and decent people who ended up on the streets because of circumstances out their control.(Especially homeless children) At least prisoners are given three hot meals a day and are allowed to take hot showers, something many homeless would die to do.
Look, people that are sentenced to years, life or death row are given the opportunity to get a college degree for free. (Which I still don't understand people on death row or lifers working towards a degree. They can never use it!) they get "jobs" within the jail, they are allowed t.v.'s in their cell, they have exercise equipment, etc....They have it better then their victims do, especially if their victim was murdered.
Of course it's no picnic in there, but that's why they call it jail! Criminals make the choice to go to prison. If being locked away from the rest of society isn't something you're interested in, then don't break the law.

Well, sometimes I think that prisoners have too many privileges. That being said, I think that prisons are an aweful place to have to be. I'm not assuming, I have visited my brother there many, many times in my life. Some are "nicer", some are plain filthy. But it's not a walk in the park no matter what.

Answer 5

They said the halls of residence (some) at my old University were based on the prison design in Holland. The rooms were small, enough for a cupboard desk single bed and a sink with a mirror, not much space than that and a square double glazed window in the middleof the outside wall. I would say prisons are like hotels but some halls of residences for students are.

Answer 7

I spent a day in a British prison working on an educational video and I can tell you that all those people who say prisons are like hotels are just plain stupid.

Answer 8

For your information, watch MSNBC on Friday night and on Saturday night around 8 or 9PM and they have a series on different prisons in the USA and you'll learn something about what it's like to be in prison.

Answer 9

Spent two years in Atlanta's Fulton Co. Fed. Pen. If this was a hotel, the manager should be shot. I felt safer in the jungle in the "Nam than I did in that hole. Constant assaults, rape, killings. At least in a war, you can shoot back.
