“If prisons aren’t fit for purpose, then prisoners should be set free.”

This post was written by a student. It has not been fact checked or edited.

Introduction

I will be sharing my standpoint on prisons. This is an important topic because Jose Aldolfo Macias Villamar, who is also known as Fito, has escaped from a prison in Ecuador on January 7th 2024

For

Some people might agree with this statement because if prisons are inadequate, why should there be prisons? Substandard prisons are unacceptable- prisons are there to teach criminals a lesson yet most pris can throw parties- in prison! If a prison is not safe and not secure then there shouldn’t be any prisons.

Against

Alternatively, others may disagree with this statement because criminals are menacing people and if they are set free from prison, then they will do more bad things which is not good.

My opinion

In my opinion, I agree with this statement because prisons are in the world for a reason and criminals are supposed to be put in prison to learn for their bad behaviour and if prisons are just out there for fun then criminals will actually like prison and just keep on doing more bad and evil things.
