My friend works for the prison service and has seen and been told of the life they have in there, seems to me the only ones being punished are the friends and family of the prisoners. |

The OP has been doing the rounds for as many years ( at least) as i have been here, it was tosh then and it's tosh now, it's also been amended from the original ( as that was US based ...and from what I've seen of prisons in the US was even less true of them there than it is here). |

Let's just tar all nursing homes with the same brush. |

This is so heart-breakingly ( if that's a correct word) true. Have seen at first hand how the very vunerable elderly are treated in so-called nursing homes.....makes my blood run cold just thinking about this. Maybe, everyone over say,70/75 should start committing crimes, bad enough to be thrown in jail? Of course I don't mean murder or any sexual crimes. Bet crimmis would think more than twice before committing Crime if they were put into (again) So-called care/nursing homes. |

I find the number of reports, about the ill-treatment of elderly vulnerable people in care homes, quite alarming, hardly a week passes that you do not read about another incident. |

Some of my older relies are feisty but Sfaik a weight room is not part of their daily life. One is 94 and still manages perfectly for herself at home while another is 102 and gets by with some support from his daughter. He flew for the RAF. |

It's just part of a long letter that someone ( tongue in cheek) would like to send to David Cameron, but I think this bit speaks volumes....... |
