>>3934516I've never been to prison but consider the following, you have no rights, you are confined in a space with gangs, rapists, murderers, predators, psychopaths, guards that don't care about you, you're surrounded by drugs as one of the few possible ways to forget how much your life sucks, and once you finally get our you're still fucked because no one will hire you, and you aren't truly free because you have to live in a designated area, be gainfully employed anywhere that will hire you, so probably minimum wage bullshit that treats you like garbage because they know they can because you have to be employed, your privacy can be invaded by your parole officer at any time without reason, so even when you're "Free" you're still a prisoner.
Yeah, I'd assume it's not just "that bad", that it's much worse, I've never been, and I'd rather die than go.
