[Conservative til I die]

Most prison guards are a step above felons. Like some guy who published a survival guide to prison on the net asked, what kind of a person voluntarily signs up for a job where you're surrounded by filthy, violent, deranged criminals, and spend half your time examining their rectums for contraband?

BTW, I'm no fringe libertarian who thinks all LEOs are pigs, but a hardcore law-n-order conservative.

"Most prison guards are a step above felons"

have you been to a prison? Have you interacted with prison employees? Most (not all) are decent individuals like you and me doing a job that has some shitty aspects to it at times.

MY POINT WAS THAT WE DID NOT HAVE ENOUGH INFO ABOUT THE PARTICULAR SITUATION

I am not in favor of killing kittens in a crusher either. It was common practice on the farm to put them in a gunny sack and throw them in the river (I never had to do this) Which is more humane, I don't know.

I want to know what was the guiding principle and situation was in that guards decision and trust that the judge gave local justice. Only Gods justice is perfect.
