        Don't think so. A Supermax cell has no windows. It's not very big and you only get out one hour per day for exercise...If they let you.

        A lot of folks have trouble living by themselves with no freedom.

          Maybe don't break into federal government buildings and disrupt a presidential vote, then.

          (And no I don't think prisoner abuses are justified if that needs repeating.)

          Please love yourself.

            Does a nonviolent crime deserve solitary confinement?

            Do you think you would do ok in a concrete 9x7 room for two months?

              Hey Jolly,
              Can they request books in solitary, like "Jailbreak for Dummies?"
              Do they get cable?
              Decent food, room service?
              I'm sure solitary sux big time after a few days.

                masters of meditation would find it easy and even enlightening. But it's probably not easy to use it as an opportunity to pick up the practice, if you're a beginner.

                Education is extremely important.

                  I've been in solitary. Even at the juvie level it sucks, I assure you. Even for just a weekend. And I had a window.

                    They can request books. That doesn't mean they get them.

                    Sorry, no tv. No radio.

                    Decent food? You know, I've ate a lot of prison food. Some of it's pretty good. Some of it is very good. Some is very bad. Depends on the prison and even what section of the prison you are in. I've seen lunch consist of a lettuce wrap ( a piece of bologna in a piece of lettuce) with a cookie and a glass of tea, and I've seen lunch consist of white beans with smoked bologna served over rice with cornbread and peach cobbler for dessert. The first was at Jefferson Parish, the latter at Camp J, Angola.

                    Room service? Uh, no.
