    Our prison system absolutely has some major flaws, but fire camp is what you said, tolerable conditions, the ability to learn job skills and work outside, and learn a skill. You can’t guarantee safety from violence among violent people unless they are isolated, and that’s a worse punishment than anything. What I’m saying is that your criticisms of the general prison system aren’t applicable to fire camp, because it offers the things you mentioned.
