and if this was a Democratic Governor you would not have even thought about posting this.....let me ask you this Dean....how come there is so much violence in Chicago?....Democratic Mayor and all?....murder up 36%.....more people shot and killed than in Afghanistan i hear.....dam Democrats.....1,300 since Republican Governor Chris Christie took office. These are not the halfway houses you think of -- small, homelike places where prisoners can adjust slowly to a return to society. These are gigantic human warehouses, apparently, indistinguishable from prisons except for less security. The Times has several Willie-Horton-like stories of prisoners just walking away from these facilities, or from job-release programs connected to them, and resuming their careers of murder and mayhem.
In keeping with current fashion, the halfway houses are privately managed, most by a firm called Community Education. Christie, apparently so blinded by ideology (privatization is good; state government is bad) that he cant see the obvious, has praised Community Education as representing the very best of the human spirit.
Christie has actually been a paid and registered lobbyist for Community Education. A close pal is a senior vice president of the company. A son-in-law of Community Educations CEO was hired in 2010 as an executive assistant in the governors office.

One prisoner committed murder after escaping. The system is a mess, a former senior corrections investigator says. No matter how many escaped, no matter how many were caught, no matter how many committed heinous acts while they were on the run, they still kept releasing more guys into the halfway houses, and it kept happening over and over again.

Republicans are the ultimate self fulfilling prophecy. Government doesn't work and when they are running it, it doesn't. They make sure of it.

We all, or most of us have a bit of fun trolling from time to time. Rdean takes it to a level that is beyond stupid everyday.
I've had a great day with the signing of a very large contract on one home remodel that will carry me well into August. I had a few extra drinks with the employees and popped on for a few minutes and let one rip. It was wrong, but shit happens. I got my reprimand and Dean got a nasty joke. It won't happen again.
Were all adults and its not like everyone hasn't wanted to rip into him for posting garbage day after day about us. The only difference between what he posts regularly and my post is I was joking, well, mine was a bit vile and over the line.
It is what it is and I'll deal with it. Meanwhile Dean knows what one poster think

you seem to use being drunk for an excuse a lot.

Seems to me you learned nothing in prison; you somehow still believe rules are for others, not yourself.
5,100 escapes since 2005... 1,300 since Christie took office.
That's an average of over 700/year prior to Christie taking office, and just over 500/year SINCE Christie took office... so thank you Deanie, for showing everyone how Christie has LOWERED the number of escapes from that system on a early basis!
I knew you liked him, but I am surprised you'd post something that shows Christie in such a positive light.
Keep up the good work!

I suspect you're not alone.
I thought liberals were advocates for prisoners. Who knew.
Perhaps they should lock them down 23 hours a day, and keep them outside in cages for an hour to get a little sunshine when not cloudy.
Would that make you happy, Dean?

No, I believe you are an asshole and this is a message board.
