having been, i agree with dmg in the aspect of no tv. rec? no, you have to have rec because if you don't? there will be way more fighting. i quit watching tv because of prison. i read now. only thing i watch on tv is the news or perhaps nascar or baseball. but that's pretty rare. i keep up with baseball reading the newspaper online. you know what the number 1 thing is that inmates fight over? the tv. with dominoes a close second.

as far as recidivism goes, some inmates get used to being incarcerated and actually enjoy it. when they get out all they want to do is get back in so they either fail their UA's enough to get their parole revoked or they go and break the law in such a blatant way that they know they will be caught. i went down for something i did not do but sure as hell don't want to go back. 33 on a 48 was enough.
