There are good reasons for being in jail - for protesting.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I think there are too many people in jail for too long and for not necessarily good reasons.
Jail is much easier on people who have nothing.
I don't like jail, they got the wrong kind of bars in there.
But the single overwhelming reason why jails are bursting is longer sentences given for more crimes.
One of the things about jail that's weird is that you're sent to a place where you're supposed to sit there and think about your actions and their consequences and why you're there. And I think now, it turns more into - the minute you go there, it's just survival.
Just because someone gets arrested doesn't mean what they are doing is wrong. Some laws are unfair and unjust.
Jail is definitely not cool. Education is.
I see people detained for simple INS violations.
We don't want to put people in jail unless we prove that they knew they were doing something they shouldn't do.
The rule is, you can protest all you want. Make all the noise you want. Carry all the signs you want. The minute you throw a rock, you get arrested. The minute you break a window, you get arrested. The minute you break into a store, you get arrested.
