I apologize if the following seems vague... But I was wondering your opinions on prisons and the sense of absolute control they hold over an individual during their time spent there. Do you believe that the person no longer has rights as they've committed to crime? What if they were arrested for minor violations of, say, not paying for parking tickets over the course of time? Does the crime itself have any influence over your views on their punishment? Is it moral for prisons to manipulate every detail of a person's existence?
Thank you.
Again, I realize that I did not provide a lot of specifics... Hopefully you can work with the above.
