I'm not saying solitary, I'm saying they can't interact with others physically. Camera + Monitor behind lexan, let a guard take care of actually starting and ending the call.

On the dangers of the human animal, we'd need a shit ton of information to even begin to have a meaningful debate. I'll concede that a determined individual is capable of royally fucking up somebody unprepared to deal with them.

    Sounds like a great idea. Put it on a ballot and I'll vote for it. Until then, with the environment we have, prisoners are dangerous. Laws should consider the reality, not the ideal.

Ok, lets immediately release all non-violent offenders, and start locking up real criminals, the ones who kick people out of their homes, and sell their debt. The criminals in white collars. The change that I want to see will require so much other social change that I'm just going to say that a near full-blown revolution will have to occur in order to make it happen.
