Unlike their random VICTIMS. *Rolleyes*
If inmates are paying for it themselves and volunteering themselves, I have nothing to say about it. Let them. It seems a positive thing.
Jesus forgave men ...who found guilty by other standards...while on the Cross.
God Bless the caregivers, volunteers, and yes the inmates that they may find Jesus...while they hang on that cross too.
Hopefully some of the other inmates will find love, mercy and compassion in comforting the dying.
Diana..so you don’t believe in mercy in any circustance? No forgiveness, not even in death?
There is a time to forgive.
Everybody should be allowed to die with minimum amount of dignity regardless they deserve it or not
That's a good thing.
As a hospice volunteer (not with a prison) I can understand why they want to help. No one wants to die alone and it’s up to the volunteers to comfort them.
I’m as tough as anyone on criminals but these are prisoners helping other prisoners on a voluntary basis. Maybe some of them will have a change of heart before it’s too late.
Well, I said I would think about it, and I have. This still doesn’t erase the great wrongs those people have committed against others, but if it is prisoners helping each other out, and not my tax dollars going to support this, then I can live with it.
For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, a stranger and you welcomed me,
naked and you clothed me, ill and you cared for me, in prison and you visited me.’
