You would think huh? Listen I am not saying that people who are in our prisons do not belong there, or have not committed serious enough crimes. I am talking about the amount of prisoners convicted of murder in our prisons is not as high as you think. They are in the minority. The money we pay for keeping prisoners alive and fed is not spent on murderers by enlarge. It is spent on throwing drug offenders and robbers in prison. Our prisons are not packed with people convicted of murder as you are making it sound.
