Full story: Kansas City Star

Think the heat's bad here, especially after that air conditioner went down? Inmates - and, of course, corrections officers - in more than a third of Missouri's correctional facilities spend every ...

Aw, isn't that so inhumane. Convicts are suppose to suffer, why are our tax dollars going towards their comfort?

Today to many people are rude and so uncaring.
Did you know you could cuss someone out and end up with a 3 degree assault charge on you and end up in prison?
Come on let's get real.
They are doing their time and if the state wants them then the state should take care of them.
They should have AC!
They are doing their time where does it state that they have to do it in hell?
I am sure if you clean out the skeltons out of your closet you aren't an angel as you may think.
Who are you to Judge? Who are you to say inmates/offenders must suffer in high degrees of heat without AC?
I am so sick and tired of rude uncaring people today.
THEY ARE DOING THEIR TIME MUST THEY BE PUNISHED FOREVER?

I think Angel that you need a check on life. These Inmates got into troble on their own thinking. I know that they let the inmates by T.V. and get cable. So do the same thing here, buy your own AC and pay a bill for electrice used. I feel that the eldery and young outside of the corrections dept. that need food, shelter, and eveyday needs. SO ANGEL GET A LIFE;

Uh, they do have air conditioning. I've heard that some complain about how cold it is in there during the summer. Poor babies are just so darn mistreated. Such good folk that they are, maybe we can spend more of our tax dollars on them. Maybe get them some steak and lobsters, too.

I did almost two years in a Texas State without out A/C. Ya'll think its hot here? Take a road trip this summer. My point is, I'm alive and well, what's wrong with that? It seemed to me as more of a reason not to go back.

I know many "WORKING" people which are not able to AFFORD to Cool Their Homes. Everything is so Expensive and after they Pay their bills, there isnt enough money left over to afford the luxury of AC.
If The Average Working Citizen is able to live without AC,then why is it that the criminals cannot live without AC?
I Believe we shouldnt cushion prisioners,no matter what crime they committed to become Qualified for Free Meals, Free Medical Care, Free Clothing, Free Shelter, etc.
Please get real, live real! I would be so greatful for some Freebies! I am so tired of paying for these folks.

Think of our troops in Iraq! It's 120 degrees over there during the summer months. If we are going to feel sorry for someone, we should feel sorry for them!
