O'Malley: 'For-Profit' Prisons Are 'Immoral' [View all] elleng Nov 2015 OP

The very worst offender of this practice is ... incorporated in Maryland. Ooops. MADem Nov 2015 #1

They run prisons for the Federal Government, not for the State of Maryland. FSogol Nov 2015 #2

CCA was incorporated in 1983. Headquarters in Tennessee. No CCA prisons in Maryland. Koinos Nov 2015 #4

I understand that, but the optics remain poor. nt MADem Nov 2015 #5

LOL, the optics are poor? That's quite a stretch. O'Malley railed against the FSogol Nov 2015 #6

There are two facts at play, here: MADem Nov 2015 #7

In other States the immigrants were being held in for-profit prisons, that's FSogol Nov 2015 #8

Are you seriously trying to tell me that state governors ignore federal businesses MADem Nov 2015 #9

A few points: MADem Nov 2015 #11

So you aren't going to apologize for posting baseless attacks against O'Malley in the askew Nov 2015 #13

Your characterizations are "baseless." MADem Nov 2015 #14

Your comments aren't polite or respectful, they are pure bashing and FSogol Nov 2015 #15

If you can't take my remarks in the polite, open and honest way that I have offered them, MADem Nov 2015 #16

You think this was a polite comment? FSogol Nov 2015 #17

Which is why I asked--has he brought up this issue before? Or is he coming to Jesus? MADem Nov 2015 #18

You keep whining and making claims, but have not shown how it connects to O'malley. FSogol Nov 2015 #19

I have provided you a link that shows you where the largest offender is incorporated. MADem Nov 2015 #20

What does Marco Rubio have to do with O'Malley? FSogol Nov 2015 #21

If O'Malley gets the nomination (a long shot, but who knows?), Rubio could well be his opponent. MADem Nov 2015 #22

Laughably naive. FSogol Nov 2015 #23

Annnnnd.....straight to the personal insult! I could say the same about you. MADem Nov 2015 #24

And for the 4th time: Maryland doesn't use private prisons. FSogol Nov 2015 #25

They used to. MADem Nov 2015 #29

Stretchhhhhhhhh FSogol Nov 2015 #30

MO'M has a legacy problem WRT prison management. He does. MADem Nov 2015 #31

Some prison systems hire their own, state-employed, doctors and nurses. MADem Nov 2015 #33

Go make your unfounded allegations in some other group. n/t FSogol Nov 2015 #36

I assume that you did not realize you are posting in a protected group. Koinos Nov 2015 #3

I don't think you meant to talk to the person who started this thread, but that is what you are MADem Nov 2015 #12

You're right. It was directed at your first response. Koinos Nov 2015 #34

I don't understand tblue Nov 2015 #26

I misplaced my response. It was meant for Response #1. Koinos Nov 2015 #35
