Not really, i don't know any prisoners that come on this forum, do you?

I clearly mean society as a whole.

It certainly begs a few questions...

Why was a prisoner in a Category A prison wandering around with a knife?

How was an "at risk" prisoner able to be attacked?

How did this story get out?

Oh Gawd it's you again -

I'll tell you what - you tell me where I've specifically stated that I support vigilante groups and I shall not re-ban your account.

Way to go, let's encourage them to think that their own screwed-up value system is actually appreciated by the outside world by applauding them all over the internet. I bet they'll be reformed model citizens when they get out. Not.

You mean in the same way the death penalty in countries that have it is a warning to future offenders?

BBC News reports the injury as a knife wound.

The sensational claptrap from the sky site probably bears no resemblance to any facts in this matter ( as usual ) - "Slashed" " will be in hospital for days" etc. ad nauseum.

The quote doesn't actually say that a toothbrush + razor was used, it says...

Well actually, to answer your first paragraph I have to say I don't actually give a damn about any of them. They're all a waste of space.

However, you make a valid point in paragraph 2, even though I doubt the few of them that can actually read will lose any sleep worrying about what their victims think of them.

ohh the cell 7ft by 4ft and no reading materials or anything to occupy the mind

They used to have a punishment for people to "noble" for execution, it was called being 'walled up' basically in a small room with a slot at the bottom for food to be passed in, imagine that, no light, no human contact at all, a total living death.

Weren't they stripped of nobility before they knocked their blocks of? Besides it depended on the crime to I'd imagine, here's a famous recipient...
