Start Chain Gangs

Agree to the imprisonment of people that are murderers, rapists, or pedophiles. There should be harsh consequences for people with convictions that are beyond the law. But I do not agree with "Three strikes you're out."

If the crime is murder or even worse murder against a child or child rape, there should not be three strikes. If your child was raped or murdered, do you think the person that did the crime should be allowed parole after seven years? This point sickens me.

I would like to bring up a person that finally confessed to his crimes, Clifford Olsen. Do you know where he is and what kind of solitary sanctuary he lives in????????

My next point I agree with not living in such good conditions that are coming straight out of our tax dollars. If you are convicted of a crime pay the price. The victims struggle with the tragedy, but still have to work to live and pay their way in society. What about victim rights? They are not supplied three meals a day with cable, gyms, free schooling etc.

Look at our great nation and the amount of money we put into cleaning it up, painting the curbs, cleaning street signs. Put the criminals on a chain gang. Make them pay for their meals, and pay restitution to their victims.

Some time ago I read an article in the Province about a prison in Arizona, that did not have the luxury of what most convicts do in our country. Think about it and start petitioning our government NOW.. It is time to take action as a majority and not as a minority to be heard. This is our right.
