( I think over half the laws on the books in our country are there just to keep the prison system going) However i would ask that people not look to harshly at the guards who work in them (as i am one) most of them work there because there just is no where else to go. A good number of them, my self included hate the job but are forced to stay because their is nothing else around. incidentally the name above this comment is not my real name simply for the fact that i could loose my job just for commenting on your article. we as a whole have our rights stepped on every time we come into work, every thing from searching our cars to even being strip searched at "random". If we have a member of our family that has been imprisoned we could loose our job just for that . Just thought i would give you an idea of what life least for us is like. i enjoy your site keep up the good work</p> Dear Mr Duffy,
