Democrats and their love affair with prisons….

The Union Leader ran an article today about two felons who have apparently been doing random violent home invasions where the occupants are always beaten and sometimes raped and/or killed. So what is a Democrat’s solution in the comment section after the article? “This is what happens when your state government underfunds prisons….” Sheesh. I responded as follows:

“Underfunded prisons”? You apparently don’t know what you’re talking about. Your default response to any problem appears to be “more money for the government.” But that’s just foolish, if not outright stupid. Consider prisons in New Hampshire: In just the past few years a brand new federal prison opened in Berlin; Grafton County built a new prison costing more than $30 million; and Sullivan County got a new one too that cost several million dollars. What is it with you Democrats and your love of prisons? Why is the answer to any problem so often “let’s build more prisons and lock more people up”? Sheesh.
