It's not true. Most people in prison, even some murderers, are not as inhuman as you might believe.

- haberman 11y agoI'm confused. "It's not true" -- you seem to be saying that solitary confinement is better/safer than normal prison life. But then you say that people in prison are not so bad. I don't think that people in prison are "inhuman", but I do think that they are "hard" in a way that would be extremely difficult for me as a very sensitive person. I think they'd have to be to get by in an environment like that. For example I can't watch Orange is the New Black -- it stresses me out.
- tempestn 11y agoBoth your statement and your parent's are probably true. Extended forced isolation is incredibly psychologically damaging. Likely more so than being forced to interact only with "hardened criminals".

- vkou 11y agoSolitary confinement is not 'not having a cellmate'. Solitary confinement is being locked in a tiny concrete cell, with no bars, no windows, and no chance to speak with another human being. Indefinitely.
- mason240 11y agoSo the answer is yes, you would like to share a cell and living space with someone who has a history of hurting or killing those around him.
