    The quality of life for the inmates will vary between prisons. There are a lot of prison stories on the internet, most of them make paint a picture that is really grim, but not in the ways that people imagine or is the stereotype. Your typical prison gym or cafeteria environment, as depicted by movies, is pretty rare. Prison rape happens but is not exactly an epidemic. I read the story of one guy (which looked genuine, but I can't be sure) where when the guards would move inmates around they would put some in solitary confinement temporarily. He was either forgotten or put in there for longer than he should be, so he had a major panic attack in there and so was left in there for an even longer period of time for not doing his confinement time properly.

    Would a homeless person be better off on the streets or in jail?

    Yes,its bad and theres more to it than having your liberty taken away.The places really do carry a heavy,oppressive aura inside.Look from the outside,not a pretty sight ever,then imagine what you see as concentrated in spirit inside.Evil.

    Sometimes I think that I want to go to prison, and if I asked a copper to lock me up, he'd say no. So I have to go and break the law for you to put me in prison? They can't even lock you up if you physically tell them that you're going to go and break the law.

    I just see prison as hitting rock bottom in life but that's just my opinion but the reason why I wanted to know what it was like in there is just to know what is rock bottom really? I mean is there somewhere else you could end up that's worse than jail?

    Well if you dont have HD tv, pool tables, table tennis,a huge library and someone to cook all your meals for you at home then you would love it . the only downside is your mum does occasionally let you out.

    In England, it's a common argument that people in prison probably have a better way of life than thousands of working class families outside of prison.
