      I’ve read a number of articles claiming to demonstrate how many of the negative things our governments and corporations foist upon us were first used in prisons. They were then rolled out to the general public, starting with disadvantaged and marginalized communities.

      It’s time for organizations like the John Howard Society to get more support so that they can be more vocal and more active.
