in Jail they take your freedom, but leave you your mind. You are allowed to read books, watch tv, join a group of people of your choice. Jail is certainly no picnic, but at least you are still an individual.
The Seedstraightkids, Inc. Steals your freedom to a much higher degree, then goes after your mind. Then it doles out freedom in small doses but makes you mortgage your individuality for the right to be free. One second if individuality and your sentence is started from day one.
Given the choice today to put my kid in jail or one of these programs, I would take jail in a heartbeat.
