homeless V prison

both good and bad in them both
freedom being homeless but know were to go
no freedom in prison but a roof over you head
not safe on the streets, dangerous, scary, isolated, alone but so is prision

being took advantage of in both cases

homeless people don't have an address so cant register for work, were as prisoner get support and employment when they come out, however they got a record and employers may be reluctant to employ them

in prison you have nutrition, and access to health care, both can be a struggle falling into drugs to pass and block out the day

i personally feel its a scary place watching your back in prion 24/7, and some people don't deserve to be there, however i feel it for the homeless people, they get it hard, and most just fall into to another statistic and become an alcoholic, drug addicted or commit crime to get a roof over there heads, so in certain cases the prisoners are better off, the got education, food, health care, sky, recreation, visits s and rehabilitation programmes, i wish that society could do more for homeless but i do know there is other agencies that in more of a crisis

1) Being homeless you are at least able to move around under your own free will and resolve your homeless state.
2) unless you intend spending all your life in prison you will eventually be released to stage 1)

Therefore I would say being in prison is worse.

Homeless...
with luck you can come out of prison and pick up the pieces...if you're homeless you've lost the pieces already.

being in prison.........i rather be homeless then be locked up with full of nutters.

plus if your homeless you can always go to a shelter or if you live in the UK there is always away.

being homeless would be worse - it means no one cares about u enough to want to give you shelter. at least in prison the majority of ppl would have at least one person that thinks of them and loves them.

Prison. I can find a home easier than I could get out of prison.

there is no reason for a person to be homeless, they CAN get a job. They can ask for help.

If you are in prison, then you have committed a crime, and you're a criminal.

being sent to prison is about rehabilitation, being on the streets is a matter of choice.

in prison at least a roof over your head and free meals, neally better than going to work everyday and paying the rent, but you can stay who lives with you LOL

Prison. If someone wants to rape you, at least you can run away or find an iron bar or something....

Being in prison is worse because it means you have committed a criminal offence and that you are dishonest and a criminal.
