Perhaps if prisons were actually returned to places of hard labour and abhorrent conditions as opposed to the virtual hotels they are at the minute, then it might be a deterrent.

and don't anyone bother coming back with "prisoners rights" :? It's an oxymoron - they're in prison, they're not supposed to have any rights...

think FC means that prisoners have sort of a luxury in their cells. I know this at Yatala for a fact going in there and changing the prisoner phones. They have TVs and xboxs/playstations in their rooms that i saw for my self. All with shoot em up games i might point out. You think they would have G rated games but they have M rated shoot em up and a phone was next to a room and one of the prisoners told me he plays call of duty .

Because the 'attention seeking' part of their brain totally overrules any comprehension of the potential risks...silly indeed.

Interesting rant. In that PM you stated:

Deleted - Do not post PM's on here without permission


If it was told in confidence and you have respect for your source, why were you messaging people that you don't know with it? Why mention it on the main board anyway?

Forums like this provide a degree of anonymity to allow blokes like yourself to come out with the "ooh ooh, I know something you dont know.. get this.." when back in the day someone like yourself had inside info, you'd have been on the phone to KG and spilled it on there. The difference is, the voice wouldve been recognised by whoever would've told you and the flow of info would've dried up real quick. On here it just takes a few more weeks for people at the club to work out who you are.

Well, yes, perhaps I was being a little naive.
