The American Prisoner

This is meant to inform the public not only of the condition of American prisons but moreso the mindset and values of their occupants. Those behind bars are as vastly different from one another as those on a college campus-many are whizbang hardcore convicts; others fail in this arena, overcome by fear and sadness; most are in an average, merely awaiting release, maintaining a status quo where the uncomfortable state of change is not required. This is not a cry for immediate sentence restructure of legal amendments for early release. This is not a cry for prison reform as much as it is an assertion-based on years of painful experience-that recidivism can only be apprehended by the reformation of the criminal mindset. This is as severe a call for change as impetus and response could require the public to consider. Crime is an ill to be fought at its breeding ground-prison.
