    Default Some of us are going to jail

    Report: 1 percent of U.S. adults behind bars - CNN.com

    According to new reports, 1 in 99.1 US adults are now in jail. So in your school class of 300 people, an average of 3 of them will be going to jail. Hell...even here at EoFF of the 300 or so active members, eventually 2 of us will be going to jail(I don't know the break down of how many US residents there are compared to foreign people...I took a guess!).

    What do you make of this jail state? What laws do you think are landing so many people in jail? How broken is the system if so many people are landing in jail? Is it a social problem in more poor areas compared to more affluent areas? Are people just embezzling more and getting caught?

    Discuss this awesomely depressing news!

    I can't think of any of us who were in Jail. I'm sure it's happened. If we can name two people who has been in Jail, does that mean that I'm never going to be in jail, since I won't be among the two listed?

    I think certain people who live a certain way are more likely to end up in jail. (lyk duh.) We don't have a lot of those people here, I don't think.

    Do we consider all the people that are banned to be in the group of more likely to go to jail folk?

    I thought banned people were sent to jail in the process.

    It's fine.

    I don't know. Maybe "The War on Drugs" and the like.
    How broken is the system if so many people are landing in jail?
    The justice system is fine. Apparently the moral system isn't.
    Is it a social problem in more poor areas compared to more affluent areas?
    Obviously.
    Are people just embezzling more and getting caught?
    Probably.
